Title:
Consistently use "App" instead of "Application" or "Program"
Status in elementary OS:
Expired
Status in elementary Website:
Incomplete
Status in WingPanel:
Invalid
Bug description:
Right now, most of the documentation and discussion has been using the
term "app" for end-user-facing programs. It's become a well-know and
-used term in the broader markets (iOS apps, Android apps, Mac apps,
apps for your TV, apps on your game consoles, etc.) and is probably
going to be more-commonly-used, at least from my experience here in
the US, than "Programs" or "Applications."
However, we're still seeing a few places where we have "application"
or "program." Most notably: the button in WingPanel. It's also
inconsistent in a few places across the site or in documentation.
To keep consistency and to prevent us from having three different
terms for the same thing, we should use "app" everywhere.
If there are compelling arguments to the contrary, I'm willing to
listen to them, but I'm pretty set on this at this point. ;)
