This software is in ALPHA state, not tested and contains many bugs. You are
encouraged to help and report them. However be aware, that this software is
intended to run as root and as such it can and probably will DAMAGE your
system. You may experience the LOSS OF DATA. You are using the software at your
own risk!
Deploy frameworks are usually one of two kinds: deterministic or object orientated. The feature of object oriented frameworks is that dependencies can be inherited. The drawback is often that it is very hard to predict the outcome and correctness of the deployment.
Ningyou tries to merge the best out of this two worlds: a) it is group oriented and dependency based with an easy configuration similar to existing tools. It produces exactly the same actions from the same configuration on the same machine architecture. Say, it is predictable. On top of it Ningyou can provide from this a shell script that you can use on a similar second machine without Ningyou, or just look at it to understand what will be done in a predictable way.
