Settings

Run setup script: $ ./script/setup.sh

Release

App

• create release build
• make sure it uses the Coati icon
• obfuscate the executable using upx

Data folder

• put data folder in working directory
• add empty log folder
• add working tictactoe.xml project to /projects/tictactoe with sources in /projects/tictactoe/src
• add empty app settings with one recent project tictactoe.xml
