dottie (WIP)

dottie is yet another .dotfiles manager written in Rust.

Notice: dottie is under ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT and not ready for production.

Concept

dottie provides easy approach to import dotfiles anywhere to your dotfiles project, and connects the dotfiles with symblic links, which is also commonly used in dotfiles management softwares.

dottie is dotfile-agnostic therefore it is kind of a symbolic linker. This might be used in any scenarios that requests similar functions.
