Appgrid the right way

[chibenwa]

Summary

Because the app grid is currently hard coded we are better off removing it: #3258

Yet it is usefull to see 'related apps' to ease their instalation.

Backend offered a means for admins to hint users into chossing related apps using .well-known/linagora-ecosystem: linagora/tmail-backend#1289

• For CNB / MU: he shall be advised Twake Sync
• For Linagora: Twake Sync, Twake chat and why not LinShare
• For TWP: Twake chat

When disabled show no mobile app grid.

When enabled show the mobile app grid based on it:

• when clicked open the app if installed
• and if not installed I am taken to the app store

To be confirmed: .well-known/linagora-ecosystem only use for app grid mobile? Am I right?

Yes. For web we can keep relying on static assets configuration in the Single Page Application I believe.

• if an app existed in mobile-app, priority to show icon with link to mobile app
  • iOS vs Android
• if an app not existed in mobile-app, show icon with link to web app (avoid duplication)
• integration_test (jmap.properties)
  • verify open mobile app (link to store in case not existed)
  • verify open web app

IMO, We don't need to change like that. Keeping the format of the returned BE intact, we can still parse it.
