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 thanks for making this app! The lower the barrier to joining the better I think. Was curious if there was a notification setting somewhere? Would like to get optional post notifications for communities I'm subscribed to. In addition, notifications for comments from a thread I'm participating in and new comments on posts I create would be fantastic!

Looking at the GitHub page I see an issue for it from Dec '22. Also read your very busy with other lemmy tasks so totally understand it's low priority. I haven't done much app development before but a software dev by trade. I can't commit to anything, but if I were to sink a few days into adding notifications, are you open to collaborating on a PR? Also curious if there's a path forward for notifications you might have in the back of your head.

Not yet. I will eventually add notifications, probably via ntfy, once we finish some of our upcoming lemmy work. It needs both back-end and front-end work unfortunately.

But yes I'm very open to having additional people work on jerboa. I'm spread very thin as it is.

Awesome! I can't promise I'll get anywhere, but if I find myself with some free time I'll try and dig into the codebase.
