The `cask` and `flatpak` have their definitions in place. The `choco` still needs some work. And the `yay` option needs no definition because the configuration is already in the proper place by default for unrestricted system package managers. +It also is important to note that the `mackup` configuration for each app (in the `~/.config/mackup/.mackup` folder) should be named using the object ID you can find for each application in the `software.yml` file. + ## `backup-apps` Script On a side note, once the proper application definitions are in place in the `software.yml` file and the proper configurations are made in this folder's `.mackup` folder, then you can use our convienience script located at `~/.local/bin/backup-apps` to perform the backup.
