I've resurrected lemmur, a beautiful flutter app. Coming soon to an instance near you!
Hey guys, a week ago I started working on a lemmy app like many others as an excuse to learn flutter. Along the way I found an old app that was abandoned but very well built.
After a couple of days I was able to get things running and semi-useable again. Including posting this post from the app! The main effort being updating to 0.17.x.
Here's some screenshots:
I'll be renaming the app (so I can republish it), tentatively under the name "Lem".. but really open to ideas here.
You're viewing a single thread.
Looks good. Did you get the original author's permission or was it open source?
Also, as a name... how about "Let Me"?
Open source with gnu gpl v2.
That was the first thing I checked! Hahah
Are you going to put it on GitHub? Obviously you're not required to release code until you release a build into the wild, but just curious if we can see your progress in real time by any chance lol
Unless you hate the name Lemmur I don't know if you have to change it yet either.
Yeah you can track my progress here: https://github.com/zachatrocity/lemmynade
I'll make a formal GitHub and fdroid release hopefully tomorrow.
Well I know I could keep the name and have a separate bundle ID. But the old app is still on the play store. Figured it'd be easier to rename then deal with the duplicate named app on the store.

I didn't think to mention this until just now, but you're probably going to have to do a more significant rework of the app pretty soon to work with Lemmy backend v0.18. You can test it against some public development instances in the short term, but unless the release candidate is held up, you probably have like 1 week before the app at least has issues on most servers (not entirely sure how much of a breaking change it'll be code-wise).
Yup, been tracking that in the matrix. Will be curious how long it takes most instances to update once it's officially released.
