Welcome
The Welcome screen is the first thing you see when you open iPodRocks.
What it does
The Welcome panel gives you a quick overview of the app and links to the main areas: Library, Devices, Playlists, and Sync. It explains that iPodRocks works with any Rockbox or mountable device and guides you to use the sidebar for navigation.
A Check for Updates button in the top-right corner of the hero card lets you manually check whether a new version of iPodRocks is available on GitHub. When a newer release is found, a modal shows the version number and a "Go to Releases" link. The modal also offers a 30-day snooze: ticking the checkbox before closing suppresses the automatic startup check for 30 days. The manual button always works regardless of the snooze state.
How it works
The Welcome screen is a static landing page. It does not load data from the database or devices. The "Get started" card lists the main panels and what they are for.
How to work with it
- Read the overview to understand the workflow: add a library folder, add a device, optionally create playlists, then sync.
- Use the sidebar to jump to Library, Devices, Playlists, or Sync.
- After your first setup, you can skip Welcome and go directly to Dashboard for an at-a-glance view of your library and devices.
