Make a Platform Image selector for the Analogue Pocket #71

Closed dyreschlock closed 1 month ago

dyreschlock commented 1 year ago

For the Analogue Pocket, you can change the platform images to whatever you want. All of my images are in /pocket-platform-images, and several other people their own images.

Someone suggested that it would be nice to make an interface where you could pick and choose whichever images you wanted from all the current images and have it generate a zip files with only the images you've chosen. Currently PocketSync does this, but it's a desktop app.

I think it's possible to make zip files using JavaScript.

  1. Read in the list of all current available cores and display them all in a list. Maybe have collapsible sections for the different categories: Arcade, Console, Handheld, and Computer.
  2. Read in a list of all available pocket image repositories. Find all of the images, and display them on the page next to their cores.
  3. Allow the user to select the images. (Only one per core)
  4. When the user clicks "Download", the bin file for each image chosen will be zipped and offered as a download.

as is, no one is going to use this. When there's a strong use-case for this thing, it can be reopened.
