Application Development

This is a development tool and tracks the state of the "current" project you are working on.

The concept of the Application Home is the current project you are working on in your system. The value is stored in a cache file and can be updated using applicationHome or the (default) aliases g and G.

A pattern used can be per-project:

alias gFluxCapacitor='cd $HOME/projects/flux'
alias GFluxCapacitor='gFluxCapacitor; G'

Which allows you to navigate between projects and change your current context.
