Concretely, it is a question of doing this:\n- test your project;\n- create the distribution package (Wheel) of your application (the project must have a `__main__.py` entry point);\n- create a `Release` on Github;\n- upload the `Wheel` file of your application as a `Release asset`.\n\nYou can use the [Backstage](https://github.com/pyrustic/backstage) project management tool's `build` and `release` commands, respectively, to automate these steps. `Backstage` also manages the versioning of your project.\n\nThen, the user just has to copy and paste the URL of your project's repository into `Hubstore`.\n\n`Hubstore` assigns a default nice image to your app. You can modify the image by editing the configuration file `$APP_DIR/pyrustic_data/hubstore/img.json`. The image must have the following characteristics: `200x80 .PNG`\n\nTo `promote` other apps of which you are the author or friend of the authors, modify the configuration file `$APP_DIR/pyrustic_data/hubstore/promotion.json` as follows:\n```bash\n{ \n    \"developer/app-name\": \"A short description\",\n    \"developer/another-app-name\": \"A short description\"\n}\n```\n\n`Hubstore` is built with `Pyrustic framework` and is available on PyPI. As `Hubstore` uses the standard Python `Wheel` package format, it is compatible with many existing projects.\n\n## Demo\n[Install](#installation) `Hubstore` in a new Python virtual environment. Open `Hubstore`, accept the default configuration to store data in $HOME, then just type in the search bar `pyrustic/demo` or copy-paste `https://github.com/pyrustic/demo`. You will be asked if you want to install the demo app. Once installed, you can run the app. You can also deliberately crash the demo app: just click the `crash` button. `Hubstore` will intercept the crash and it will offer you to report it.\n\n\nIf you are an old user of Hubstore, please delete/move `$HOME/hubstore-apps` and `$HOME/PyrusticData` before you open the new version of `Hubstore`. Yes this new version isn't compatible with the previous one.\n\nEnjoy the demo !\n\n## Installation\nIf you have never installed a package from PyPI, you must install the pip tool enabling you to download and install a PyPI package. There are several methods which are described on this [page](https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing/).\n\n### Install for the first time\n```bash\n$ pip install hubstore\n```\n\nI recommend even for the first time to use the next command (upgrade). `Hubstore` needs the latest version of its dependencies.\n\n### Upgrade\n\n```bash\n$ pip install hubstore --upgrade --upgrade-strategy eager\n```\n\nNote: this project is for early-adopters !
