options.ts

/**
 * @module
 *
 * Options are key-value pairs that are used to store information such as user preferences (for example
 * the current theme, sync server information), but also information about the state of the application.
 *
 * Although options internally are represented as strings, their value can be interpreted as a number or
 * boolean by calling the appropriate methods from this service (e.g. {@link #getOptionInt}).\
 *
 * Generally options are shared across multiple instances of the application via the sync mechanism,
 * however it is possible to have options that are local to an instance. For example, the user can select
 * a theme on a device and it will not affect other devices.
