Pretty Garage is a GUI-base garage tool for Stunts developed by Cas aimed at providing a comfortable experience and ease of use. The project was started on 19 January 2024 and quickly reached version 1. By early March in the same year, it was already capable of accessing online repositories, a feature still unavailable to its CLI-oriented counterpart Simple Garage, whilst the latter allows for a more powerful set of commands and filtering options.
Pretty Garage can render car images on-the-fly, which makes it easier to identify cars and has been made with the idea of eventual compatibility with the Car Archive project, led by dreadnaut.
Garage handling
Like Simple Garage, Pretty Garage supports the definition of one or more garage directories, besides Stunts' main path, which is also used in a similar way. Cars can be exchanged between these garages rather freely. Stunts' path only differs in that it cannot hold more than 32 cars and one car can be defined as default (normally, the Countach) and cannot be moved out of the directory. However, these rules can be overridden, as most actions in the program have the option of becoming forceful if the shift key is being held down.
Junkyard
The user can define one garage to be the junkyard. If a junkyard is defined, attempting to delete one or more cars will immediately send them to that directory without confirmation, unless they are being deleted from the junkyard itself. This is similar to the behaviour of trash cans in desktop OSs. In Pretty Garage, the first garaged with a name that begins with "junk" (case insensitive) is set to be the junkyard, if it exists. Without a junkyard, the user will always be prompted for confirmation when deletion is attempted and if approved, it will be permanent.
