VPDesktop: Unofficial VPMobil/stundenplan24.de desktop client

Mostly UI changes, am refactoring the login page, it looked pretty bad, so I want to make it look better, will be on github soon.

Hey, added sample data integration, a few design and QOL improvements and a proper class selector.

Updates & Improvements

Hey! Over the past few days I added some key QoL and UI features:

• Last login persistence with autofill support (see implementation details below)
• Navigation header implementation

Implementation details

The username and school number are stored using file-based caching
(implementation here).

The password, however, is stored using go-keyring, which saves it in your OS-native keychain.

Why use the keychain?

In short: security.

Although the password is accessible to the application without manual decryption, the OS keychain itself is:

• Encrypted at rest by default
• Only unlocked when you’re logged into your OS
• Protected from offline access (e.g. someone copying your hard drive)

So instead of writing the password to a plain file, the keychain ensures that someone who physically obtains your disk can’t simply read credentials, while still keeping login seamless for the user.

Hey, not much to report, just developing small things, added an interface between the ui and the api, basically the UI gets a pointer to the object and can then load content dynamically.

I also integrated i18n for locales, so that the app works in english and german 🥳.
