Add a scrollview which inherits collectionview to handle scrolling.

Something similar to CSS, although unsure what syntax that will be used yet.
Classes should be supported that can be used on views, but also support a class that alters all views of a specific type.

Overloading should be supported, likely in the following order:
class affecting all views overloaded by class specified on specific view overloaded by attributes directly in a specific class

Currently, match parent is used as a value for size, which means it will take up all space from its position to the end of the parent.
Replace it with a star, which should fill up the remaining space.
This means we could have views a, b, and c like:
|a bbb c|
where a and c have fixed size and b uses a *

Old behaviour would cause the following:
|a bbb|c

If the parent of a view which is recalculating its layout has a fixed size (specified or match parent), it will not be updated.
The problem with this is that the contentsize of that view isn't updated.

This can be solved by either:

1. Recalculate layout of any parent having a child with wrap_content
2. Ignore contentSize completely for views that has a fixed size or those that match the parent.

This bug can be triggered by loading contentsizebug.xml

Implement OPK parsing and launching in AppManager

• Load all OPKs and get the titles
• Load icon from OPKs
• Launch OPK

Have a category of views that are specialized to handle large collections of items. With builtin support for selection and scrolling.

These views might be forced to use a single item template. Possibly support some minor variation here.
Might / might not force same size of items.

Monitor the file system for changes, and add / remove OPKs dynamically

Implement support for layout gravity for views

A makefile needs to be added.

Currently it's possible to compile with:
g++ --std=c++11 *.cpp */*.cpp -I/usr/include/SDL2 -lSDL2 -lSDL2_ttf -lSDL_mixer -lSDL2_image -o exLauncher

We need to handle the initial item selection.
To do this we need:

1. Make inputView type CollectionView instead of View and enforce this (exception if the specified inputView isn't inheriting CollectionView)
2. Create a method in CollectionView to initialize or update selections, and then call this from ScreenMenu

Support recent app items, which are filled with recently launched apps.

Allow attributes to be specified in XAML style, especially important for the itemTemplate attribute, to inline the template

• Since autodetection of libraries doesn't work that good on Windows, some documentation is probably needed, especially for the cmake variable SDL2_LIBRARY, which you might think you need to fill yourself.
• When running the compiled application, a console window pop ups next to the ExLauncher window. This is fixed by going into project properties in visual studio -> Linker -> System and setting SubSystem from Console to Windows. A fix which does this already in CMake would be great, if possible.
• The generated projects ALL_BUILD and ZERO_CHECK doesn't seem necessary.
• It would be nice if resources and include files are included in the project, not just source files.

Instead of having a set input view per screen, support having multiple one, and have some mechanism to move between them.
A suggestion would be configurable actions when leaving an input view upwards, downwards or to the left and right.

This could be useful for example if the icon area should be an input view, for things such as wifi settings.

Because they're not properly clipped against eachother, they are just clipped in the collection view bounds.

For example when an item is selected, that view and all children should have the state change propagated.

Make sure views don't draw outside their bounds.

(Maybe it should be possible to override this with an attribute)

System menu containing system info, shutdown, reboot and optionally exit if not run as launcher.

Introduce selectors. A view that switches between views depending on on a certain state.
This would be used to show an item as selected.

Build the first theme, with a home screen

Explain various views, and give examples
