Ansible is definitely one way to do this. If your machines are VMs, then also building VM images with packer can be the way.
For tmux, vim, etc. You can still use ansible or some specific tool for dotfiles, like chezmoi (there are a bunch). You can even use ansible to run chezmoi!
on top of ansible to setup system services and user accounts, I have found this https://github.com/andsens/homeshick to help getting my user settings back
I use https://www.chezmoi.io/ for the same purpose of managing dotfiles. There are a bunch of tools to do this that you can pick your poison :)
