XStore Documentation

This Wiki page is about a feature that is not released yet

Code for the new XStore.json system is available on the Beta-Core repo.

The XStore.json format is currently somewhat inefficient, this will be improved upon. It currently uses entries that have a field name (such as "name", "auth", or "icon") followed by a number representing the slot it will appear in when loaded in XStore. All fields must be filled out to properly load in NCX-Core.

NCX-Core will download and read the file right when the program starts, while the splash screen is visible. Once XStore.json is downloaded, it will read it and download all the icons that are linked in it. After that, the file is only read from when you visit a store page for an app (to get stuff like the program name, author, description, and the download link when downloading).
