Every merged app is listed. Featured placement is the maintainers' choice and may change.
|
|
|
|
## Files
|
|
|
|
- One folder per app: `apps/<app-id>/`. The id is lowercase letters, digits and single hyphens. The manifest's `id` matches it.
|
|
- File names in the folder are lowercase: letters, digits, `.`, `_`, `-`. `manifest.json` and `README.md` keep their names.
|
|
- The [README](README.md) lists every manifest field.
|
|
|
|
## Screenshots
|
|
|
|
- Capture the whole window: title bar, four corners, four edges.
|
|
- Use the original size. No scaling, no heavy compression. PNG only; convert, do not rename.
|
|
- Show real content. Close unrelated windows, menus, tooltips and notifications.
|
|
- Show the app as it ships. No device frames, captions or collages.
|
|
- The first file in `previews` is the cover. The others show different features.
|
|
- Commit every preview in the app folder. No URLs, no absolute paths, no `../`.
|

|
|
### macOS
|
|
|
|
Press Shift-Command-4, then Space, and click the window. Option-click drops the shadow.
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
Focus the window and press Alt-Print Screen, or press Windows-Shift-S and pick Window mode. Paste into Paint and save as PNG.
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
|
|
Use your desktop's window capture, such as GNOME's Print Screen and its Window mode.

## README and detail page
|
|
|
|
`apps/<app-id>/README.md` gives the app a detail page. At most 10,240 bytes.
|
|
|
|
- Describe the product: what it does, how it works, who it is for.
|
|
- Links go only to the manifest's `website` or `source`, exactly.
|
|
- Images are PNG files in the app folder, by name.
|
|
- No raw HTML, no code, inline or in blocks, and no install steps.
|
|
- Write characters as they are, not as `&...;` references.
|
|
- Any address in the text is the `website` or the `source`.
|
|
|
|
`pnpm validate` checks the size, the links, the addresses, the images and the markup. Maintainers read the words: a README that tells how to install is sent back.
|
|
|
|
## Pull request
|
|
|
|
Run `pnpm install`, `pnpm test` and `pnpm validate`. Then open the pull request. Maintainers may ask for better screenshots.
