    Is this a similar but more generic approach to cosmic sync[1] or more like a company deploys to many employees?

      Interesting project, I&#x27;ve never heard of it. Looks very similar as functionality, but Bor is a centralized management system. As you said, it&#x27;s more like &quot;company deploys to many employees&quot;. The target is not only companies. It would be useful in Schools, universities, community centers, etc.

        Great, then i have to try this. Hopefully it can be used via git to have a deployment for all my home linux desktop environments including my wife and parents.

        Thanks for taking the time and for making this!

          I&#x27;m currently working on a Git support and an unified format for import&#x2F;export of the policies :)
