OF next ideas

here some ideas I would like to discuss / work next.
Sharing here in the hope more people engage in discussion and code if any of this subjects is of interest.

• test PR where download_libs.sh actually downloads from github apothecary release - https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/pull/7128
• separate cairo files, and have some define set to include cairo in the project, so it can be disabled per project, if needed. https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/pull/6985
• moving cairo functionality to a core addon - https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/pull/7326
• remove Appstore from xcode schema and substitute it with the right define. - https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/pull/7133
• simplify getting started ( so people who clone the OF repo can quickly get up and running )
• simplify and cleanup packaging process ( before we transition to GH Actions releases )
• the same for libfmod, including the rsync step, so we can have smaller binaries / faster build if needed.
• Now fonts have correct metrics, we can work on a scale factor so it can be used seamlessy on retina.
• work on of::filesystem to get it totally working. OF jumps back and forth a lot in filesystem::path to string, so I'm trying to minimize that - https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/pull/7110
• ios device / screen rotation
• Spend some time experimenting with Chalet to build OF (seems promising). Really nice with dependencies, if you are used to modern tools like platformio or rust crates.

This issue is a discussion list rather than a scoped task, and it names no file, test, or entry point. Start by selecting one unchecked proposal, read any relevant linked pull request such as #7326, and agree on a narrow scope and definition of done before coding.
