Application architecture

When Vobot Dock starts, it will retrieve the /apps folder in the file system. Each subfolder is treated as a separate App, and Mini Dock will try to load these customized applications.
```
/apps
   |-- your_app1
   |-- your_app2
   |-- your_app3
```
When developing applications in Thonny, store your application in the /apps/your-app folder. It is recommended that you develop in the following directory and use __init__.py as the entry file of the application. You can think of your-app as a Python module.

Folder structure

As a minimum requirement, new applications typically have the following folder structure:
```
your_app
   |-- manifest.yml
   |-- __init__.py
```
__init__.py serves as the entry file for the application (must be implemented);
manifest.yml is a manifest description file (optional implementation) used for automatic packaging when publishing your application in Vobot App Gallery.

When installed, the maximum size allowed for an application is 200KB, including all resource files. The file system space occupied by all applications is limited to 900KB.

If your application is very large, it is recommended to use the following structure:

your_app
   |-- manifest.yml
   |-- __init__.py
   |-- app
   |-- resources
   |-- settings

Application
- /app/
  - Contains application logic to access companion APIs and interact with presentation layers such as LVGL.
Settings
- /settings/
  - Contains application settings declarations written using the Settings API, allowing users to configure the application.
