Universal HISE Downloader/Installer

[d.healey]

@DanH of course :) it would probably be more flexible if made with something like Electron but using HISE has certain advantages.

@d-healey the filesystem apis are pretty awesome in HISE tbf

Thanks for the feedback, looks like it's worth pursuing. I did a little work on it this evening, the account login/logout works and synchronising products with a server.

The next thing I'll do is get the actual download/install action working then it will be ready for some testing.

@d-healey Lorde Healey, we are forever in your debt...

Just an update on this in case any of you are holding off making your own downloader.

I'm not currently working on this downloader project and won't be any time soon. At the moment I have too much other stuff going on. But hopefully I'll find time at some point to get back into it.

@d-healey Thats an amazing idea, i had something very simmilar in mind for all my vsts but also had no time for that. Would love to help with design if needed anytime soon :) And ty for your video about using images for expansion in the browser thats so cool!

@Straticah Would still absolutely love this

@griffinboy After building Rhapsody I went off the idea. Managing one site's downloads is enough work for me. If I was doing it as a commercial product then it might be worth my time, but then I'd probably have to make it closed source which I'm not going to do.
