Everything SynaptoDeck does.
One manifest drives the app and this page. When a feature ships, it appears here on the next build.
The fundamentals — a grid of buttons that do things.
Multiple pages per profile
Group your buttons however you think — work, personal, games, side projects. One swipe between them.
