Some things Flipper Zero-related I've been working on (mostly standalone plugins and applications)

Under the /applications folder there's a (small) collection of different apps:

• MultiConverter, a multi-unit converter written with an easy and expandable system for adding new units and conversion methods (it has it's own README file with more info)
• Dec/Hex Converter, a decimal to hexadecimal (and vice versa) converter with "real-time" conversion and built-in keyboard (some pics here!). Updates on this one will be probably stopped since the MultiConverter covers this scenario (and lots more with more units!)
• Conway's Game of Life, simple implementation on a full-screen 32 x 16 cell grid (video and pics here!)

Each app can be added as a plugin on a regular flipperzero firmware source:

1. Copy the plugin folder (ex: /applications/game_of_life) to the main /applications one
2. Modify the /applications/meta/application.fam main manifest and add the plugin entry in the proper section:

App(
    appid="basic_plugins",
    name="Basic applications for plug-in menu",
    apptype=FlipperAppType.METAPACKAGE,
    provides=[
        "music_player",
        "snake_game",
        "bt_hid",
        "game_of_life", // <<--- here's the new definition (use the appid from the app application.fam manifest)
    ],
)

3. Compile the firmware and install

I usually use a standard updater_package build that creates an executable file I can push to my Flipper and run it as a new update:

$ ./fbt --with-updater COMPACT=1 DEBUG=0 VERBOSE=1 updater_package

(this requires all the proper dependencies, check the docs from the official repo for more info!)

• The order option on the application.fam for each app sets the priority order on the menu list
• Nope, currently it's not possible to "install apps" without reflashing the entire firmware with everything inside :(
• My idea is to keep everything here up-to-date with the new firmware releases, so let me know if something doesn't work or anything related!
• To work on a full flipperzero source folder while having my stuff in my own repo I like to create symlinks to the folders inside the /applications main dir:

~/flipper_zero/flipperzero-firmware/applications$ ln -s ~/flipper_zero/flipperzero_stuff/applications/dec_hex_converter/ dec_hex_converter
~/flipper_zero/flipperzero-firmware/applications$ ln -s ~/flipper_zero/flipperzero_stuff/applications/game_of_life/ game_of_life

and so on...

• Official firmware
• Hello World Tutorial, I used this one as the starting point for my firsts projects. It may be a little bit outdated, but combined with any other "current" app (like the Snake minigame) it should be more than enough to start tinkering with the system.
