0.2.0: Back to the Manager!

Welcome back to the Manager

Back in the days, the name of Gradience was Adwaita Manager (@AdwCustomizerTeam @AdwCustomizer) and now we introducing a Preset Manager (thanks @0xMRTT).
With preset manager you can:

• Add presets
• delete presets
• apply presets
• rename presets

You can also download the Community presets directly from the app (thanks @tfuxu).

We also added a welcome screen, for now it does nothing but it will automatically setup your system for Gradience. Thanks @0xMRTT and @daudix-UFO for illustrations.

Our @WeblateOrg Libre Plan has been approved. Thanks to all translators 🚀.

Thanks to @LyesSaadi, we got a package for Fedora. And we submitted our app to Flathub.

Thanks to all contributors, translators, designers, bug reporters and everyone else for making this project possible 👍🚀.
