+@deffn {Scheme Procedure} home-stow-migration-service
+Return a service which is very similiar to @code{home-files-service-type}
+(and actually extends it), but designed to ease the way into using Guix
+Home for GNU Stow users. This service allows users to point Guix Home to
+their Stow directory and have their file automatically deployed to their home
+directory just like Stow would, without migrating all of their dotfiles to Guix
+native configurations.
+
+A typical Stow setup consists of a source directory and a target directory.
+The source directory must be structured as follows:
+
+@example
+~$ tree -a .dotfiles/
+.dotfiles/
+├── git
+│ └── .gitconfig
+├── gpg
+│ └── .gnupg
+│ ├── gpg-agent.conf
+│ └── gpg.conf
+├── guile
+│ └── .guile
+├── guix
+│ └── .config
+│ └── guix
+│ ├── channels.scm
+│ └── .gitignore
+├── nix
+│ ├── .config
+│ │ └── nixpkgs
+│ │ └── config.nix
+│ └── .nix-channels
+├── tmux
+│ └── .tmux.conf
+└── vim
+ └── .vimrc
+
+13 directories, 10 files
+@end example
+
+A suitable configuration would then be:
+
+@lisp
+ (home-stow-migration-service
+ (string-append (getenv "HOME")
+ "/.dotfiles"))
