[APP / TOOL] AppMan | v1.4

---

Nana-Nana-Nana-Nana AppMan!

As introduced to the the TEAM ROM! i am releasing AppMan for public consumption, i mean to do this a while ago but have been sick and busy, better late than never

This thread is for bugs, requests, and general info about AppMan!

What is AppMan you ask? well what isn’t AppMan! basicly EVERY addon for your custom ROM available through a live menu, to be either saved to your SD card for flashing or installed as soon as it is finnished downloading! So with AppMan you can “Bloat” or “De-Bloat” to your liking without worying about deleting the wrong files in Root-Explorer!

BUT but thats not the best bit! AppMan checks for updates for your ROM and notifies you of any new addons, updates, mods, themes, ect ect. You will then be able to download any of these things from AppMan and update or flash them with a few simple clicks!
“OTA” Update for any custom ROM!

BUT Wait it gets EVEN COOLER! AppMan doesn’t need to be updated to add new items to the lists as it looks it up from online! The idea is you can add new mods / tweaks / anything realy as often as need be and you can veiw them at your pleasure from you phone!

Any DEV that wants to include AppMan is welcome to! first just read the Q&A and then contact me if you need more info ( PM or here i dont mind )

AppMan How, What, When, Where, Why

AppMan How, What, When, Where, Why

So the basics is AppMan checks what ROM you are on then checks the master list of ROMs and checks if your ROM is there. if it is it generates a the menu with the supported options (Apps, Scripts, Kernels, Mods, Updates, Themes) ( this is what is grabs to do this )

then when you select a item it looks up the list and displays it ( here is the TEAM app's list for an idea )

I put a description of all the items that need to be filled out in the github readme ( here )

For now thats all i can think of. more to come laters

At this point I'd have to say no. Appman is meant to be a file browser more a tool to enable correct usage of addons for roms and to simplify everything for users.

Oh and Just to be clear I cant ( at this point) offer hosting of files.
