Hi All,

I have started implementing the $subject. Initially I'm working on simple
UIs to the following features,

   - Login screen (this can be bypassed if the user is using EMM)
   - App listing (catalog  UI)
   - App detailed view

As I have discussed with Dinusha, this app will be implemented in a way
that a user can use it standalone with just having AppM and also
integrating with WSO2 EMM (Using android agent as SSO). APPM team will be
providing APIs for the following,

   - Retrieving app metadata list for a particular user + device type
   - Retrieving app update information (updated apps with the latest
   version would do)
   - Installation + Uninstallation + Update APIs

Adding @Sumedha.

Thanks
