[FEATURE REQUEST] Better screenshot database #1439

Open ottozumkeller opened 9 months ago

ottozumkeller commented 9 months ago

I would really like to add an icon to my app in WingetUI. But I'm a bit confused about how to add an icon and screenshots to the database. It looks like there are only chocolatey package ids in the table. Is it also possible to add icons and screenshots for Winget packages? If so, how do I create an entry? How does the database work (A bit more documentation would be useful)?

I am planning on making a proper website to add icons/screenshots.

By the time it is done, to add a new app, you will need to scroll down to the bottom of the document and on the purple column you will need to add the normalized icon (on the bottom of the page).

Package ids will be normalized. This means that the id will show in lowercase, and the spaces, underscores and dots (" ", "_", ".") will be replaced by dashes ("-"). In the same manner, Winget packages will have their publisher removed from the ID, and chocolatey packages will have meta suffixes (.install and .portable) removed.

Thank you for your reply. I only read the github wiki and was a bit confused. A more user-friendly website is a good idea.
