Desktop app configuration #2

Open domsinclair opened 7 months ago

domsinclair commented 7 months ago

I'd like to suggestion a configuration section for the desktop app that would allow one to set certain key default settings to a json or xml file that would then always be read when the desktop app was creating a new app.

Things such as a Default locale and base url (or at least the local host part of it given that frequently one has to use specific ports on local host) are examples that spring to mind.

Hi Dom,

This can all be done with community support now we have access to the source code and not rely upon DC to do everything. I've created a pull request for the repo clean up - and will discuss with DC. If he decides to pull it in, I'll add a few more fixes I've done on my local versions and may look into your requests above.

Haven't got around to checking out your pr just yet, hectic week I'm afraid.

It occurred to me that adding some links to documentation would help as well ie https://vtlsoftware.co.uk/trongatedocs/index.html

That's still very much a work in progress, but in theory one would integrate DC's how to stuff at the top and then have the actual framework documented below.
