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.

Is it worth it to learn android app development just to contribute to Jerboa? (feddit.de)

Hi,

my Android dev experience consists of a single school project back in the day before android studio existed, it populated a few menus dynamically from text files and displayed text/images.

I am a developer, but I write business software in a field that's usually 10 years or so behind the bleeding edge.

I'd consider myself a power user of android, flashing roms or kernels isn't new to me, but development is.

Jerboa is great already, but I see a lot of things that could be improved and many of them seem rather easy.

How much time would it take to get to a point where I could implement simple stuff, like adding an entry to the context menu of comments that lets me view the raw text?
