Often times, it is desirable to have a backup of all the configurations on your system, which is why a lot of users have their dotfiles saved in a git repository, then symlinking them to their target locations using ln -s. Dotter aims to solve all those problems by providing a flexible configuration and automatic templating or symlinking to the target locations. Among other things, it explains how to setup and configure Dotter, as well as giving insight on how the templating and deployment works.
