  60 ## Installations
  61
  62 See the `\install` folder for scripts to install various handy utilities. Most of these rely on `Apt` on Linux, or `Chocolatey` on Windows.
  63
  64 ## Setups
  65
  66 See the `\setup` folder for configurations.
  67 These are, obviously, just my preferred configurations.
  68
  69 In general, these work by setting up symlinks on Linux, and on Windows by copying a stub file that sources the versioned file.
  70
  71 Most of these are cross platform `.ps1` files that run under PowerShell.
