+1 for containerlab. The ability to commit everything for the topology
(including images) to a git repo is incredibly useful for sharing, study
and analysis.

There's also a gui floating around for it and klabernetes for labs that
need more resources than a single server.

Tim's too modest to toot his own horn, but he also did an awesome
presentation on using clab + netbox for network testing a few years ago.
Highly recommended if you want to see what's possible with it.
