Achieve it! How you ask? Well, it's pretty simple; just use greatness!
```bash
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
cargo install --path . ```
bash
bash -c "$(curl -fsLS https://git.io/JcDJe)"
great pull add -m Wowee/GreatnessIsAmazing # Defaults to github. Put in a full URL if you don't use GitHub!
Greatness is you being great and better than everyone else. You have to uphold that superoprity complex don't you?
Simple! Use this tool. This tool is designed to bring your system up to a working state that you like in a small amount of time. It is very flexible, 100% modular, and fast.
You can view the documentation here!
Well, just remember the name. Greatness has to be the best. But if you are stupid (but still great), here is a comparision chart.
You may recognise this chart from Chezmoi, but with some rows stripped out. This is because I do not know what they mean, and thus cannot implement them. If you want them, please file a great issue/pr.

As you can see, greatness is best. However, a sort of close second [chezmoi], has a weird name, is not scriptable, doesn't support dotfile merging, and isn't modular. This makes it not ideal for situations where you might want to pick parts of diferent peoples rices, merge them, script program installation (or have greatness do it for you), and then put it out into the world as a repository, which other people can then use as modules.
