This downloads a simple [installation script](.local/bin/dotfiles-install)
and then executes it.

on [X11](https://www.x.org/),
though older GNOME versions
and [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org/) should mostly work,
except for some X11-only stuff.
Further, it uses
[`python3`](https://www.python.org/) with `pip`
to generate the [color palette](.local/bin/color-palette)
and enables a few `systemd` user units.
So, it should not be too hard to get this going.
