The backup utility

This modular backup utility will help you backup what's essential to you in a few keystrokes!

Overall data structure

to be used in data.yml

---

data.yml is expected to host the Data interface. Here is a sample, more details about certain types can be found later on.

apps: # `App[]`
  - id: firefox # Short, concise name
    name: Mozilla Firefox # Full name, to be displayed on terminal
    install: # `Install | Install[]`, all available installs are noted down below
      type: packagemanager
      value: # `Record<PackageManagers, string>`
        all: firefox
    move: # Move[]
      - glob: # string | PlatformDependant
          unix-like: ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default-release
          win32: '%UserProfile%/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*.default-release' # You won't be able to use Illegal Characters
        deleteNew: true # Deletes all occurences of glob above before copying the new ones over

storage: 
  - glob: ''
