🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so, the whole vibe: you roll up with an XML file, and sympa-create makes a list out of it 🎀. That list gets created under the domain or family you specify, no cap.

And if you didn't specify a context at all? Not a problem, bestie — the primary domain gets used as the default ✨. It's literally just there waiting for you. Iconic behaviour fr fr.

Heads up though: those two synopsis lines are doing very specific things with quoting, so copy them character for character when you type them out. The quotes are part of the spell 💅
