Contributing

Want to add an app? Open an issue using the [New App] template or submit a pull request editing recently-added.json directly.

A few rules:

• Add new apps at the end of the apps array in recently-added.json
• Never remove existing entries from that file — the automation handles overflow automatically
• Do not edit apps.json or APPS.md manually, both are managed by the CI
