feat(launcher): discover apps via per-app app.json manifests#17
Merged
Conversation
Adds an "app package" discovery model so apps are plug-and-play: drop a self-contained <bin>/../apps/<id>/ directory (executable + app.json + icon) and CFDesktop picks it up at startup, no recompile. - AppDiscoverer scans <bin>/../apps/<id>/app.json, parses each manifest, resolves icon/exec to absolute paths; skips malformed manifests with a warning. - loadAppsConfig fallback chain is now: discover -> apps.json -> defaultApps. - Calculator becomes the first manifest app: executable + app.json deployed together under <bin>/../apps/calculator/ (self-contained package). - defaultApps() drops the calculator entry (now discovered, not hardcoded). - Tests: app_discoverer_test covers parse, absolute paths, skip-bad, skip-missing, empty-icon.
