## What it is
Dotly is a modular, opinionated dotfiles framework built on top of the fast zim zsh framework. It provides a structured way to manage, install, and restore shell configurations and scripts across macOS, Linux, and WSL.

## Use cases
- manage my zsh dotfiles across machines
- bootstrap a new mac with my shell config
- restore dotfiles from a git repository
- customize my terminal setup quickly
- sync shell scripts and configs between computers
- set up dotfiles on linux or wsl

## When to choose
- you want an opinionated, modular zsh-based dotfiles structure
- you need fast shell startup via the zim framework
- you want scripted install and restore of dotfiles from git

## When to avoid
- you prefer minimal, hand-rolled dotfiles without a framework
- you use fish or another non-zsh shell as your primary shell
- you need a GUI-based configuration manager

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, configuration-management, cli
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: cli, cross-platform
- tags: dotfiles, zsh, bash, shell-configuration, dotfiles-manager, command-line, automation, macos, linux
