Implemented features

• Detection of subscribed and local mods.

• Review of subscribed mods with the catalog information.
• HTML and/or text report, sorted by mod name. Split into multiple categories, based on issue severity.
• Mod options for easy access to reports, catalog download, feedback via report-form or on discord, links to recommended mods and also broken mods.
• Button to create a .zip file with most important logs for support that will be stored on desktop.
• Support for mod groups, to allow different editions (e.g. stable and test) of mods as mod requirement.
• Basic translation frame work (UI and catalog standard fields. Languages for notes will be integrated later)
• Catalog Updater method (for mod maintainers only), based on web crawling the Steam Workshop and CSV import.
  • Automatically detects new mods and changes in mod information: name, required DLC/mods, source URL, ...
  • Easy catalog maintenance with simple CSV files for updated mod and compatibility information. This allows for catalog maintenance by multiple people.
