+The depot is a monorepo for my tools, infrastructure, and any other
+personal projects. I treat it as a small research lab, working on
+bleeding edge networking and computing projects.
+
+A lot of the software here is used only to sustain other parts of the
+repo, serving as a composable in-tree base for other functionality I can
+experiment with. This repo aims to unify many related subprojects under
+one roof.
+
