@Killpit Thank you for filing an issue. We agree that some more narrative walkthroughs would be a good addition to documentation. Though it may not directly address what you are asking for, there are some scenario guides for the collection (https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/amazon/aws/docsite/guide_aws.html#ansible-collections-amazon-aws-docsite-aws-intro). There is also validated content that shows how to use this collection in certain scenarios (https://github.com/redhat-cop/cloud.aws_ops).

@gravesm I had a quick peek on that and there are lots of things missing such as creating ECS containers, EKS clusters and there's a long list that goes on. Creating resources on how to use them similar to Terraform docs where I can use the boilerplate code and make the environment with small tweaks. And when I started to look towards Ansible, I couldn't find any, but thanks to this repo, I may find and also create playbooks and share and create EKS clusters and ECS containers and other stuff related to AWS, similar to Terraform.
