The Tool Store (TTS) is four components:
- This website
- GitHub Organization for public source code and resource sharing - live
- Desktop Application - for local digital tool use and management (unreleased)
- Web Application - for online digital tool use and management (unreleased)
The basic idea behide TTS is one system for all software consumables.
In practice these are tools we use computers for.
