Config Files

All files in this folder will be symlinked to the root of the repository in the npm preinstall hook. This is to remove clutter when browsing the code on GitHub or other online tools.

This readme file is ignored though.

Why

Personally I find it intimidating when I open an interesting project only to be bombarded with a long list of files in the root directory. I think this is an elegant solution way of avoiding that problem while retaining the functionality provided by these files.

By using symlinks we can continue editing and updating files in our usual way once the installation completes. Prior to installation the superfluous implementation is hidden.
