This repo is also mirrored to Codeberg.

I made an easy to use ToDo app, just to learn a bit about programming and Flutter. It does not really provide any benefits over other ToDo apps, but I am glad that I was able to make this.

You can download the APK for Android, rpm for RHEL/Fedora or just use the AppImage.

I am willing to work more on this, you can read the roadmap in the link provided.

Any guidance, criticisms, or comments will be greatly appreciated.

If it’s made in flutter, doesn’t that mean you easily publish it to the iOS App Store? Isn’t the main point of flutter to publish to both iOS and Android?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

That is correct, but I'll need either a Macintosh machine, or a VM to compile the app. Then, I'll have to pay a fee to Apple to publish this on their App Store. I haven't even made a .deb package, as of now, because I use Fedora and am too lazy to spin up a VM.

But if I get to implement everything I have in mind, for this app, I'll surely release it on every platform possible.

Well I mean if you want to pay 99$ each year, yes

Only if they have access to a mac and xcode would it be easy. Trying to develop anything for iPhone, even a fairly simple website, can be a genuine nightmare without the proper tools for testing, let alone an actual app. I once spent over 2 days trying to solve a bug that I was able to resolve in like 5 minutes after finally admitting defeat and borrowing my brothers macbook.

And that's the way they like it
