<ul>
<li>a tiny library with a minimal API (3 structs, 4 factory functions, getters)</li>

<li>on Linux, Redox, Windows (≥ Vista) and macOS.</li>
</ul>
<p>The library provides the location of these directories by leveraging the mechanisms defined by</p>
<ul>
<li>the <a href="https://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html">XDG base directory</a> and the <a href="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs/">XDG user directory</a> specifications on Linux,</li>
