Welcome to the UBports community! Introduce yourself here!

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:

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.

Hi @LDovic and welcome.
I think @libremax covered it.

If yo need help developing an app, you can post a question in the app development category or you can join the group on telegram.

Thanks @AppLee @potet @libremax @Opolork !

@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.

Hi everybody!

I'm Mathieu from french alps, 35 years old and I use UT since 2 weeks on a Xiaomi redmi 7 onclite and I really enjoy it! It works quite normally for an unofficial ports. I study electronics at school but I almost never works in it for differents reason ( to ski and mtb almost everyday ) but I still lovin it. I already read the Ubports docs and many post of the blogs thanks to advices of @libremax on the french forum.
I'm linux user since only 2 years and I use Raspberry pi for "tv", it's awesome for 40€ computer!
I really want to see what UT will become and maybe be a part of it.
On this page https://ubports.com/fr/meet-the-community some links doesn't work .
So keep going and enjoy!
