Dotfiles Management
I didn't discover Chezmoi until seeing this thread (sigh). I developed a tool, [filetailor](https://github.com/k4j8/filetailor), with an almost identical goal (dotfile management while accounting for differences across machines). It uses Python and YAML, but from what I can tell is similar in concept to Chezmoi.
One thing I like about filetailor I didn't see in Chezmoi was the ability to surround code with a comment specifying which machines it should be commented/uncommented for. It's easier than templates in some situations.
It works great, but there's probably tons of bugs that occur when used by someone other than me. I don't have a CS background and this was my first big hobby project.

Dotfiles Management
You can use chezmoi to manage files outside your home directory if you really want to.
For an example, see https://github.com/felipecrs/dotfiles:
The `home` directory contains home directory files.
The `root` directory contains root directory files (e.g `/etc`).

Running Docker on WSL2 the right way
For example, in my dotfiles, every single of these steps are automated, including configuring /etc/docker/daemon.json, changing ~/.profile, and even providing a way to automatically update your extra binaries (docker-compose, or the wincred.exe) every time you update your dotfiles (by using a feature of chezmoi - a dotfiles manager which I totally recommend).
