Well I'm Dave. I started using Linux when my Windows 98 machine crashed and a friend recommended Linux Slackware in 2000/2001.
I been using Linux ever since. From Red Hat to Ubuntu and everything in between.
So when I heard of a cellphone can run without Google and Apple I had to try it.
So my very first cellphone had to a LG Nexus 5 running Ubuntu Touch. I don't have a need for the phone part. That part is useless to me. House phone is good enough for me for my telephone needs.
What I want the Nexus 5 to do is be a remote control for my desktop. By the way the desktop is a dual boot Mandrake and Ubuntu Zoran.
So I had this cellphone for one day and like everything new to has to be pain to me. So I can here looking for help with my wifi problem.
Hey want to know something else. This also my first time using a forum. Heck I never even used social media before.
I never did MySpace or any of that Twitter junk. I basically keep to myself and away from sites like that.
So I said why not try and see what I get. Who knows I might be able to help others as I learn about Ubuntu Touch. Plus I could be a big help with big computer version of Linux. With all them years under my belt of Linux use. I'm sure my experience could come in handy here.
Thanks for reading and let's learn together

Hi I've been using Ubuntu Touch for about 3 years and I want to help with development. How do I get started?

@LDovic Welcome, have a look here:

@LDovic Welcome!
I think one good entryway to developing is via the core apps - as the most experienced UBports developers tend to be busy working on the OS itself, there's not enough people working on the core apps. Should be possible to make a pretty big impact regardless of experience level, and it's probably a good introduction as well.
In case you're interested, they're found on gitlab.com/ubports/apps.

@potet I'd very much like to help with the core apps, I'm assuming linux desktop os recommended?
-
@LDovic Hi and welcome. Apps for Ubuntu Touch, including most of the core apps, are build using clickable. So yes, a linux OS is needed for developement.
As already has been said, apps are hosted mainly with Gitlab. For some general information to get you started check out our doc . You will also find some links to Telegram groups there.
If there is one of the core apps you like best
head for issues, if you are looking for a starting point. Or if you already have an idea to add THE missing feature just go for it. -
