[Dotdrop](https://github.com/deadc0de6/dotdrop) is a dotfiles manager that provides efficient ways of managing your precious config files.
It is especially powerful when it comes to managing those across different hosts.
The main idea of dotdrop is to have the ability to store each dotfile only once and deploy them with a different content on different hosts/setups.
To achieve this, it uses a templating engine that allows to specify, during the dotfile installation with dotdrop, based on a selected profile,
how (with what content) each dotfile will be installed.
