  Hi @supaiku! Your question is pretty broad, but lets try... Other ways of contributing to apps than writing code: reading code - some tasks like creating developer documentation, only needs you to read and understand the code helping with design creating art work like app icons making mock ups for new apps taking administrative burdens from developers by managing issues for example (being the maintainer of an app you know very well is possible without knowing how to code) help testing of course by joing the ubports qa and test telegram group or: more structured tests were nice in some cases, but someone would need to create that (infra)structure, either by creating and managing test tables, which are filled by testers or by setting up more advanced test managing systems (i.e. see http://www.systemtestportal.org/) translating apps maybe you find enough app devs around you to host a hackathon

  There are several libraries with QT bindings for Go out there. As a matter of fact clickable already provides a code template for writing Go apps for Ubuntu Touch. It uses @nanu-c's fork of another project.

  I am also interested in this, as I am currently working on a wrapper to bring ConverseJS (XMPP client) to UT. Looking at this repo: https://github.com/florisluiten/rssreader/ There seem to be some built in UT styles: <link href="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/css/appTemplate.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/fast-buttons.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/core.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/buttons.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/dialogs.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/page.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/pagestacks.js"></script> But they look a bit unfinished. Given that it says version 0.1, I am wondering if there is maybe a newer version available by now? Edit: This seems to be similar: https://youtu.be/g5pD3b87bC4 Edit2: this seems to be the latest version and Ubuntu seems to have stopped including this in distributions later than 16.04. So for now it will work, but I guess once the switch is made to 20.04 these will need a new maintainer.

  @AppLee Thank you AppLee for notifying me. Yes, indeed I'm stil working on it and I'm focusing on the UI right now. I will release very soon an update, which will bring the ability to set thresholds and get notified when a threshold is overcome. For any request, please follow the link to the thread AppLee highlighted before, instead than replying in here, to avoid fragmentation.

  It's time for a small bugfix release, but this one does add some needed features as well. 1.6.6 (2019-11-16) - Added option to add password protected feeds. Implemented new podcast player with styling support. General UI improvements and bug fixes (see CHANGELOG for details). Hoping to start adding translation support for the next version.

  Sportify works flawlessly with Mopidy on UBPorts. It's not the easiest to set up but it is worth it.

  Hi arubislander, Thank you for your reply. I did find requests on Github about the sorting possibilities on the name. I followed your advice and joined the ongoing requests => https://github.com/ubports/address-book-app/issues/12#issuecomment-552354416 It would be a great pleasure to help of implementing the features but I have not the skills to do it, unfortunately. About my remark about the impossibility of exporting the address book, I just discovered that it is actually possible. I apologize for the mistake.

  I had a quick look at Flutter, it's full of promises, but it's still another "good idea" from Google. I may be pessimistic but I think it will finish like GWT ; started well, had some success was never achieved => abandoned Just my 2 cents I hope for the best but Google has a tendency to never deliver on its promises.

  @arubislander might be better and be able to convert it to work with the modular launcher, its more or less a scope replacement option. https://open-store.io/app/launchermodular.ubuntouchfr

  @dieharddan said in Webapp Creator desktop mode: @TotalSonic hmm i tried that string but it didnt change anything; i tried desktop mode on morph browser as well and it doesnt seem to do anything either. maybe has to do with being on the edge channel? hmmm - maybe it is a problem of Webapp Creator not functioning correctly in the Edge channel currently - or maybe it is a problem with the website you are trying to link to. You could test out the Wire UT and MeWe UT webapps that are available in the Open Store - because they both use the user agent string I posted to bypass what would either wise get you routed to a page asking you to download Android apps.

  @arubislander If you only work on QML, you can use directly QML Creator from the app store or even work with QML live app ( didn't had success with QtCreator because it can't save the save trought MTP or SSH AFAIK) If working on a standard project, you can try first locally and then setup the build for UT ( examples here : https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/appdev/guides/cookbook.html
