Description
On the 'Wall of Apps" page, categories display all the versions/releases of an app matching that category, resulting in repeats. Different apps belonging to the same category are not placed in the same category row; rather, a multiple rows of a that category are created, with each app in its own row.
Objective:
- Ensure that a given app appears no more than once in each category/row.
- Ensure that categories aren't duplicated and have a single dedicated row
- Correct total app count to represent the sum of all unique apps with categories

Note that uncategorized apps are not currently displayed on the 'wall of apps' page. To add this feature, it may be convenient to create default 'Category' objects for new/uncategorized apps, as this data structure is defined in apps/models.py and used for the current construction of 'wall of apps'.
The current 'other' category refers to apps that are not in the top x categories, where x can be set and is currently 20. Uncategorized apps could be added to this category in the future, as described in the first paragraph.
Note 2: Category rows are ordered by the number of apps in each category, however, if a category comes to exceed another in its app number, row ordering will not be changed, despite hard refresh of the webpage, until the django server is restarted.
Please check that an App will still be visible on the Wall of Apps even if it does not yet have a logo.
Yes, that is the case. I have updated the screenshot, so you can see it there.
OK - looks good! Please proceed with PR.
Merged and deployed on https://dev-appstore-2.bioviz.org.
Tested the ticket. I tried to add categories and checked the Wall of Apps. At that time, it worked perfectly fine. But when I tried to update the app and remove some categories, they were still visible on Wall of Apps page, with count as (0), and no apps displayed for those categories. Also, on the left menu on home page, one category called 'Test App' was not displayed even after refreshing the page, when an app existed for the category.
Philip Badzuh could you please have a look into this?
Another observation is that when u remove a category previously added for an app, it still exists on the left menu of homepage. I am not sure whether it is supposed to be like this so thought of noting it down here.
Kindly refer the screenshots attached.
I have fixed the issue I found here as well as those reported by Shamika Gajanan Kulkarni in the commit below:
https://bitbucket.org/pbadzuh/appstore_pbdev/commits/46dd28f4362ea539fced1fb19bb66998914d5a10?at=IGBF-2190
Please see question regarding commit: "IGBF 2190 Delete empty categories"
(Question is a note/comment attached to the commit and referencing the bit in mk_app_page where it seems like tags are getting removed from the database.)
I have reverted deleting empty app categories and have made it so they aren't displayed on the 'wall of apps' and home pages. They are still however in the list of suggested apps that is given when a user tries to add a category tag to an app.
The changes can be seen in the branch below. Kindly review.
