0004
0005 ## Introduction
0006

0008 secrets. The storage could be a KDE specific one, or some other storage that
0009 complies to the freedesktop Secret Service specification available here.

0013 The Free Desktop draft would also instruct you how to configure the storage
0014 backend in order to activate the one you prefere - ksecrets or some other
0015 storage like gnome-keyring.
0016
0017 This documentation only covers the KDE specific code.

0019 The main components of the KSecrets Service are:
0020
0021 * pam_ksecrets
0022
0023 * KF5::Secrets framework
0024
0025 * ksecrets

0027 TODO - write more documentation here. However, right now I'd like to get it working ;-)
