-      Supertag is a tag-based filesystem, written in Rust, for Linux and MacOS.
-      It provides a tag-based view of your files by removing the hierarchy
-      constraints typically imposed on files and folders. In other words, it
-      allows you to think about your files not as objects stored in folders, but
-      as objects that can be filtered by folders.
