package toolcheck

// This package is responsible for checking to ensure all our tools are available to us.
// Since we aren't hooking directly into the internals of anything, we require the availability of the packages
// on the system in order to use their CLIs.
// In the future, we might hook directly into the backends for pacman, flatpak, and snapd
// but for now, this is a perfectly fine way of going about it without introducing weird bugs
