ASHPD Demo

ASHPD Demo is a utility application designed for the Linux desktop environment to test and demonstrate the functionality of XDG Portals. It provides a graphical interface that allows users to interact with various portal implementations, such as file choosers, document portals, and camera access, without requiring specific application integration. By utilizing the libportal library, the software acts as a sandbox-friendly bridge between applications and the host system services.

The application serves primarily as a diagnostic and development tool for developers and system administrators to verify that portal services are correctly configured and operational on their distribution. It displays the output and status of various portal requests, enabling users to observe how system-level permissions and file interactions are handled through the portal architecture.
