Custom SMASH apps

[frafra]

Hi,
it could be nice to give to the users a pre-configured SMASH app, without having to modify https://github.com/geopaparazzi/smashlibs/blob/0ea71496f5b33b5805b168b5213d342580b1c1fe/lib/com/hydrologis/flutterlibs/utils/preferences.dart. It is not trivial to found where the shared_prefs is saved.

It would be nice to share such settings and pre-pacakge SMASH with different defaults and extra options.

Here are some ideas:

• Different default settings, to ship an app with a GSS URL and password already defined or custom map theming
• Custom logo / name
• Single-project app (just open the default project and skip the first screen)
• Enable/disable functions:
  • Buttons: single note, form notes, track, layers, fences, ruler...
  • Menus: extras, ...
  • Settings: override device id...
  • First boot tour

SMASH has a config folder, which it is only used for debug messages. It would be nice to move the conf file there as first step.

What do you think about it?

Hi @frafra , I find it a great idea. But it also would be quite invasive (which means to be handled with care and time). It has always been my wish that people (also non developers) could be able to create their branded version with a simple json file.
