Added QOL features, README rewrite, bugfixes & shipping preparations!

After all this time- the app is finally entering the final stretch (atleast for its first ship). A pretty thorough testing has been done and I am now quite confident that there’s not much missing. I got some feedback from a friend of mine and used it to add in some things he found missing, soo shoutout to him!

  • Added many warnings and pop-ups throughout the app. In the app there are many settings that if you tweak at the wrong time, or incorrectly you can get yourself into quite some mess. With these warnings it should be more easily preventable.
  • Completely rewrote the README, so that it now includes many images, gifs and most importantly very good documentation of the features.
  • Added translations for more things, such as when parameters are regenerated it is done so in your chosen language.
  • Added watermark text to the add window. Since I’ve heard it multiple times now, that the text box for components name is not intuitive to click on at all this should fix it.
  • Fixed many issues, ranging from parameters saving as their opposite type, to the app crashing just from opening settings. You can read through these in detail in the respective github commits.
  • Ship preparations. I took some time to deal with these things, such as making the app as humanly simple to run as possible, thourough testing, making github releases and writing the README as well as the ship description.
    And that is probably it here. This is likely the last
    devlog before shipping, so hopefully see you there!

Seeing this project for the first time?

This project is a native windows app written in XAML and C#. It aims to make a software that would allow you to note down any pc components you might have lying around (which I doubt are too many people.. xd). The main reason why I am making it is 1) To make this app, as I would personally appreciate something like this and 2) To learn XAML and practice C#. This is my biggest project and I hope that it will help atleast someone one day. It is also my first time ever making any kind of app, instead of games/mods so I learn quite a bunch on this journey. If you find this project cool, or just want to stick with me on this journey be sure to hit the follow, ty!
