 To apply the configuration. If you're using `nix` with `home-manager` you need
 to run `silo apply` a second time because the newly installed packages (using the home-manager hook in `~/hooks/home-manager.nu`)
 will change how the configuration is applied.
+
+So on `apply` this repo does
+
+1. Update the context variables in `~/.config/silo.toml` and prompts for input on required variables.
+2. Renders the templates and moves the resulting configurations to the configured directories
+3. Runs `home-manager` to automatically install packages. Additionally deletes older hm-generations and clears the cache
