Totally agree with Atlassian/AWS. Two senior devs should not have to pour over dozens of pages of documentation to figure out how to add a role to a user using SAML.

Git and Linux are great though. Git is well understood and, if you don't do bad things in the first place, easy to use. It's explicit. Linux itself works great and is straightforward.

Docker is hit or miss for me.

I feel your pain on the AWS SAML config. Actually anything with Cognito is this way too, circular documentation links that never actually lead you to your destination. It's like being in a labyrinth.
