DUST: Device Usage Tracker API

DUST is a tool to track the usage of a fleet of devices in a shared environment.

With DUST, you can:

Add new devices, providing descriptive information on them, such:
- hostname
- brand
- model
- credentials
- photo
- ip
- nickname
- and more...
Claim a device as a user to let others know which device is in use.
Integrate a Slack bot with a Slack channel for group communication and convenient commands (like /claim <device>).
