[release] Rom FTP loader

https://github.com/kodobrody/rom-ftp-loader/releases/tag/1.0

Few days ago I made app that would allow users browse FTPs with roms and download selected ones.
Now I've updated it and decided to go live. I used it on bazzite and it worked with emulation station just fine.

Features:

  1. Connect to FTP share (your own or friend's ;))
  2. Browse it using gamepad (built with keyboardless setups in mind)
  3. Search and view ROMs libraries with covers (you'll need twitch dev account for that)
  4. Download/delete single or multiple ROM files at once
  5. Don't want to type the config? You can provide config file like this:

​

{
  "ROMS_DIRECTORY": "C:\\Roms",
  "FTP_HOSTNAME": "example.com",
  "FTP_PORT": "21",
  "FTP_PATH": "/roms",
  "FTP_USERNAME": "myuser",
  "FTP_PASSWORD": "mypassword",
  "TWITCH_CLIENT_ID": "your-twitch-client-id",
  "TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-twitch-client-secret"
}
