This is a Tkinter(Python 3) based gui app,which lets users to download/install,update,remove,execute and manage other FLO Dapps.The app reads the details of other dapps from Flo Blockchain.These details are added by the authoritative user by making transactions with the dapp details with his/her required address.A hash is calculated of the dapps details and is also stored in the blockchain.When the app is opened for the first time,all the details of dapps is fetched from flo blockchain(only transactions of type "vin" is considered for the specified/authoritative User address and is stored in local file along with the last txid fetched.The purpose of fetching the last txid is to optimize the time it takes while opening the app.The flostore app need not have to re-read all the transactions,instead it will start fetching details after the last txid fetched.Inorder to provide security of local data fetched in json format,the hash of local data stored is compared with the hash earlier stored in blockchain.
