Want to add an app? Open an issue using the [New App] template or submit a pull request editing recently-added.json directly.
A few rules:
- Add new apps at the end of the
appsarray inrecently-added.json - Never remove existing entries from that file — the automation handles overflow automatically
- Do not edit
apps.jsonorAPPS.mdmanually, both are managed by the CI
