## Summary
|
|
|
|
|
|
The summary should answer the question **"What superpower does this app give me?"**. It doesn't need to comprehensively describe everything the app does, as long as it highlights one important aspect and makes it clear why it's valuable.

## Screenshots
|
|
|
|
|
|
General guidance:
|
|
|
- Provide multiple screenshots showing off the main areas of the app
|
|
|
- Show off the app with realistic and good-looking example content
|
|
|
- Update screenshots when the app UI changes
|
|
|
- Use GNOME system defaults (stylesheet, font, icons, window decorations, etc.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Avoid:
|
|
|
- Using a non-standard system stylesheet or icons
|
|
|
- Using non-standard window decorations (e.g. minimize/maximize enabled)

## Repository Icon
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Gitlab repository icon should be the regular app icon with a baked-in shadow. We have plans to add a way to automatically export a PNG with a baked-in shadow from App Icon Preview for this purpose. |
