        Heya, I'm a student who's got plenty time on their hands since my college hasn't started yet. In the meantime I've been actively testing Ubuntu Touch and have noticed how the devices page and other documentations lack updates. I unfortunately don't have a pc right now so I can't contribute in coding and development as of right now but I can offer to help in all kinds of documentation building stuff since I'm quite passionate about writing in general and I really wanna help the community however I can.

        I will do this by keeping myself updated on new developments, talking to community members and ofcourse testing things myself.

        So I'd like to ask, is this a welcomed effort??

          I can't tell you exactly how and where to start, but I can tell you that HELL YES help with documentation is very welcome!
          Are you on Telegram? If so, I can point you to the Writers group where they'll know more.

            @Moem Yes I am on telegram! and I was thinking to start with updating the devices page on the main website first since a lot of them seem to be outdated

              @sm-xcx That is cool, someone is working on that, you could probably help! I've started a private chat with you here on the forum.

                if you don't have a PC you should consider using the web gitlab interface to create Merge requests to https://gitlab.com/ubports/infrastructure/devices.ubuntu-touch.io
                I'm not familiar with the way it's done with Gitlab but from a quick reading of the documentation it seems possible.

                  @gpatel-fr Yes I'm already aware of how the device documentation works and I can access gitlab using my android phone with termux and a companion app so that's not gonna be an issue!

                      @gpatel-fr ahaha I am running a dualboot setup as of right now mostly cuz I need it for college work, though I don't switch back to it that often cuz usually Waydroid does the job just fine. I don't mind using the web app via morph but my current setup is quite snappy so I don't think that should be an issue!
