this PR provides you with a "fastlane starter package" – to give it into your hands to define how your app is presented, and make it easy to keep descriptions & graphics in sync with your development. Some notes to sum them up in a place easy to find for you:

  • the IzzyOnDroid Fastlane Documentation can guide you with maintaining the structures here
  • take special care for limits, e.g. per-release changelogs can have max 500 chars, full_description.txt max 4,000 chars, graphics must have specific aspect ratios etc.
  • you can have "bigger graphics" here; the IoD updater takes care to resize/optimize them as needed
  • for the full_description.txt here I've used HTML compressed into a single line, to prevent the fdroid software converting each line break to a <br>. The tags used for this are supported by F-Droid.org as well, and to my knowledge even by PlayStore.
  • whenever you add a new "type" of metadata that has not been there before (e.g. the first changelog, a featureGraphic if it wasn't yet present), please let us know so we can check and enable it.
  • Details on all this in the linked documentation.
  • Once merged, your changes will be synced whenever a new release is pulled in here – to make sure it stays up-to-date with the app itself.
  • Should you have questions, be welcome to ask 😉

The second commit adds the missing IzzyOnDroid badge to the Readme 😉

And now: Enjoy!
