Originally I was developing a program called StahovaniZHouseMixes, but it was built in Windows Forms, even though it had some interesting features, such as direct downloading including a progress bar for both the file being downloaded and the overall progress.
Unfortunately, as I said, it was in WF, and that is not a modern technology (even though some people are trying to revive it). What bothers me most is that even when I don’t touch the *.Designer.cs file at all, every now and then I lose the entire layout and suddenly half of the application is gone.
My bigger reason, though, came when I decided I wanted to put a program like this on GitHub, and there it has to look decent – no buttons without icons, and 100% functionality at the expense of the number of features. And that is exactly what I did this time. After starting, the program looks something like this:
The 1st step when the program looks like this is to type the name of the profile you want to download from. I typed PlayLentoStyle, which activated the 1st icon. After clicking it, you will see something like this (note my very clumsy English):
After dismissing the warning and notice, a web browser will appear, where you click through the pages at the bottom and then the pushpin button at the top, which will download and parse all the mix pages listed on the current page:
Once you are finished, click the door icon to the right of the pushpin. This closes the web browser and shows you the mixes you have clicked through:
At the same time, the 2nd button is activated, which generates an HTML file with the mixes that then opens by itself. It has an HTML extension – on my machine, HTML files open in Notepad:
And that is everything the program can do. I forgot to disable and enable the buttons in the App Menu, so I am going to finish that now. I also forgot to disable button 1 when the profile name is deleted. Nevertheless, it is already on GitHub and you can take a look at it at 👻 The domain switched off its wifi for good.. EDIT: Everything there is now fixed and finished.
