[guardian-dev] auto-generate an app website based on Fastlane/F-Droid metadata

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I have been writing a Hugo (static site generator) theme that
automatically generates a website based on the F-Droid/Fastlane metadata
included in an app's source repo.  It is called, unsurprisingly,
fastlane-hugo-theme
https://github.com/guardianproject/fastlane-hugo-theme.  The key idea is
that the metadata provides enough information to build a nice little
website, and GitLab/GitHub Pages makes it really easy to host a site.
This currently supports:

* automatically generates localized sites, based on enabled locales
* GitLab Pages via the standard _.gitlab-ci.yml_ method
* GitHub Pages via [pushing to _gh-pages_
branch](https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/#deployment-of-project-pages-from-your-gh-pages-branch)
* includes all screenshots
* includes feature graphic as header
* includes Title, Short Description, Full Description
* shows badges for F-Droid, Google Play, GitLab, GitHub

The CSS/layout still needs work but I suck at that stuff, so I'd love
help with that part.  Here are some examples generated by this:

* [(source)](https://github.com/guardianproject/ripple) -
https://guardianproject.github.io/ripple
* [(source)](https://gitlab.com/guardianproject/checkey) -
https://guardianproject.gitlab.io/checkey
* coming soon, porting this site: https://guardianproject.github.io/haven

This can also be extended to include more things that can be included in
F-Droid/Fastlane metadata:
* Video
* What's New / Changelogs
* Developer email/name/website
* support for Triple-T Gradle Play Publisher
