📄 Developer Documentation

Developer documentation is available both on GitHub and Paquet

Developer documentation teaches you how you can add your own app to Paquet or build an app using Paquet's APIs

➕ Add an app

To add an app, fork this repository and add your app specification to the apps folder.

Here is an example.

paquet's Issues

Create a dev preview

Due to security reasons, deployment previews have been deleted and pull requests no longer get preview deployments.

The plan is to create a development preview hosted at dev.paquet.shop that will display changes in the dev branch. All deployments will need to be manually reviewed so they don't include any security holes.

The plan is to also use a custom icon and title for the web app.

Another plan would be to have all dev commits automatically deployed but to exclude the SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY secret, so all features that require admin access will be disabled for security reasons.

Replace icon web fonts with SVG icons

Self host all icons in svg format and create a custom icon component to replace icon web fonts.

This fixes, slow loading due to all icons being loaded, layout shifts, accessibility issues.

Add a middleware

This should allow access tokens to have a max age of 1 hour, because we can check server-side and refresh the access_token cookie.

This could also allow for the current user to be accessible on any page, but this might be left as is to optimize performance.

Add play store support

Make Paquet installable from Play Store.

SvelteKit remake

Fresh is a good framework, yet Paquet's vision is not the same as Fresh's. UltraJS would be a good alternative, yet it is not stable.

We are moving to SvelteKit. Porting would result in better UX and DX, and overall would benefit Paquet in the long run.

Create a custom router

Working on a custom router to replace MPA navigation. If this reliable enough

What are the platforms you have tested this app on?

• Windows
• Linux
• Android
• iOS (iOS doesn't support PWAs, but can run standalone)

Remove verification

The verification mark is pretty much useless as every app on the shop is verified before approval.

Fix install banner flicker

The install banner flickers due to prerendering. There is no reliable way of detecting if the user installed the web app.

Proposal: Maybe setting a cookie once the app is installed will solve this problem once and for all

Restructure branches & others

• Remove dev branch
• Remove dev preview
• Remove github action for deno deploy
• Show environments
• Add production branch
• Restructure docs

Add automatic app fetching

Add automatic app fetching by using manifest_url and manifest_hash. Then periodically fetch new changes on apps using a cron job.

Make author field optional

Some apps do not have a specified author. We should make this field optional.

Fix nav bar iOS bug

An iOS bug makes the nav bar cutoff at the top. This can be fixed by extending the nav bar upwards, keeping the same area visible.

Add sitemap

Add a sitemap using fresh-seo.

Add websitecarbon results

I think that the internet should be relying more on green energy. Will add a badge in footer to specifiy websitecarbon results

Fix back button

Improve features scalability

At the moment the features prop on apps is stored as an object with booleans. We could replace that to use a new array of features.

Add better sectioning in home page

This would require to add a different form of app button

To add sections in home page like random picks, open source and so on.

Move app links to individual columns

Redirect paquet.ro to paquet.shop

Add custom title for pages

Use self hosted fonts

Switch to self hosted fonts so we save some time on fetching. Fetching self hosted fonts would save about 780ms from page loads

Add better documentation

Add author link

Add a link when pressing the author link to open a link to author

This is a big breaking change, but could ultimately improve the quality of contribution and maintenance.
This would require removal of authentication, storage and database.
