This retake the PR#107 which wouldn't have worked completely anyway.

This is the new metadata generator for the application repository V2

Changes done over the work initiated in PR107:

  • Removal of the repository selector. It was a nice idea to want to edit any repository using this metadata generator but the truth is that web js is not allowed to bring the content of a JSON from outside its domain. It was certainly worki8ng during the development, but if you try to read a repository elswhere, it was not working. (Is wasn't for no reason that it was a .js before, and not a .json)
    So the generator is now simple operate on the ../applications/metadata.json
    I will provide a repository template on github that will include the generator, it will be easier for people to start their repository from it.

  • Removal of the support for the Legacy in the generator.
    We won't use that after. It became irrelevant as we only edit metadata.json. The original metadata.j will stay present for a time for old versions.

  • More documentation about the data to capture in the create application form

I cannot do that because I don't have the required permissions. You should be able to do it though: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/transferring-a-repository#transferring-a-repository-owned-by-your-personal-account
