This is an IonicFramework based mobile app for reading articles from https://dev.to/ using their API.

Getting the app

If you simply want to use the app you can go to Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.ecompilot.devcommunity

iOs version will be published sooner or later, no schedule yet.

Compiling the app yourself

If you wish to compile and run it on your computer you need to clone this repository and run following commands:

cd dev_to
npm install -g ionic cordova
npm install
ionic cordova run android

You will need android virtual device created or real device connected to computer via USB cable.

Running in browser

Current functionality

• Getting list of latest articles
• Reading the article

Plans/Roadmap

• Prepare app and publish it to iOS App Store
• Small redesign to use screen space more efficiently (remove paddings/margins), make font larger, add some CSS for better code listings appearance
• Load comments for articles
• Add offline reading functionality
• Notifications about new articles even when app is in background or not running (don't know yet if it is possible with Ionic yet).
