+| Command | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| `make update` | Updates the system with the latest packages |
+| `make packages` | Installs all defined packages (see `packages.yml`) |
+| `make dotfiles` | Manages the users' dotfiles |

+Note that these are not supported on a first bootstrap run. Only use them after
+the bootstrap to update existing configuration.
