Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Hey @Dessalines, I wanted to report an issue on github repo, and I noticed there are 64 open issues, and you are virtually the only one contributing.

I would offer my help triaging the issues. My GH nick is the same as here. ๐Ÿ˜Š

I got your mention on this one. Post body mentions don't work currently, only comment ones.

I don't know that triaging / sorting issues would be much help there. Jerboa just needs more developers besides me who know jetpack compose, can answer code-related questions, and close issues. I'll probably add a github template making sure people searched for existing issues, and that should be enough.

I'll dedicate some time to organizing the issues, and bettering the templates. I'd just prefer it be myself or other contributers that organize our issues.

I apologize, I didn't want to be alienating. One of the main reasons I couldn't stand working in corporate programming shops, was that in those, the owners and project managers rule, and the coders / workers don't. So I very much wanted to be in environments where coders, and the people who actually do and understand the work, are in charge.

If someone could do a video tutorial on getting Jerboa running locally for the purposes of local development iterations, that would make it so much easier for me (and probably people like me) to get involved and help

Any guide to getting set up with android studio guide should work.

I wonder if you have to do it in full with the instance and everything, like @dessalines@lemmy.ml or something. That's how it works on Mastodon at least.

Edit: Forget it, I have no idea how to tag on Lemmy. XD

Yup, that way of mentioning seems to work! This message now appears in my mentions.
