F-Droid App Overhaul
Modernise the F-Droid mobile app store
F-Droid is a software ecosystem around Android applications. It is an app store kit, a platform, an app and catalogue of free and open source applications. The app makes it easy to browse and install apps, and redistribute these from your own device to others.
This project is about modernizing and rewriting the official F-Droid app that still dates back to the early days of Android in 2009. The goal is to make the app easier to use and more appealing especially for new users.
The rewrite will use the latest technologies and will make it easier and more attractive to contribute to the app while also making it easier for the maintainers to review and merge external contributions due to better test coverage and less code entanglement.
