-dotfiles
-========
+A new beginning for what used to be my
+[conf_dir](https://github.com/kejadlen/conf_dir) project, since `dotfiles`
+appears to be the conventional name of these types of repos nowadays.
+
+This uses [Ansible](https://github.com/ansible/ansible) to provision new
+machines and [stow](http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) for managing conf
+files that can be symlinked.
+
+# Requirements
+
+- [Ansible](https://github.com/ansible/ansible)
+
+# Usage
+
+``` shell
+ansible-playbook [playbook].yml
+```
