Maybe someone in the group can help me. If I have roughly zero experience in coding. What are the resources or tools that would help me to become a GrapheneOS or Android developer . Right now I’m doing there freeCodeCamp curriculum. I was told one good resource is https://developer.android.com/courses . You should ask in #offtopic:grapheneos.org, not here | 05:44:11 |
| ryan | Redacted or Malformed Event | 05:44:24 |
| ryan | I asked in off topic then was directed here btw | 06:54:39 |
| ryan | Ok I think I understand. Pick an issue on GitHub and work on it? | 07:32:07 |
 matchboxbananasynergy! | ryan: We generally try to only leave issues up whch are actionable and desirable | 07:34:04 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | So that approach can work | 07:34:10 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | However, it is probably best to still ask if working on something specific is something likely to be looked at and reviewed at a specific point in time | 07:34:37 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | What kind of thing are you looking to work on? | 07:34:42 |
| ryan | I have about zero coding experience | 07:41:38 |
| ryan | So something simple | 07:41:44 |
| ryan | But something useful I’m looking at these https://github.com/GrapheneOS/os-issue-tracker/labels/priority-high | 07:43:09 |
| ryan | Specifically the duress password I think it’s doable there is an app that does this: https://github.com/x13a/Duress/blob/main/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml | 07:44:25 |
| ryan | I don’t know I think a while loop or something? Once again I have about zero experience but my friend is a software engineer so maybe he can help me | 07:45:08 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | The duress feature already has a WIP PR made for it, which needs some cleanup and can likely be shipped at that point | 07:45:10 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | I think that if you're a beginner and want to start contributing, it likely makes sense to start out with simpler stuff and work your way up as you learn. | 07:45:52 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | Do you want to contribute to the OS or apps? | 07:46:05 |
| ryan | Doesn’t really matter | 07:46:29 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | I'd recommend reading through https://grapheneos.org/build#development-guidelines as a start | 07:48:13 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | And depending on what you want to work on, look into the appropriate languages | 07:48:24 |
| matchboxbananasynergy! | You'll likely need some practice/familiarity with them before you can work on something in GrapheneOS that would be accepted | 07:48:42 |
| ryan | Ok | 07:49:08 |
| ryan | There aren’t any “good first issues” at the moment | 07:51:36 |
| ryan | https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Vanadium/issues/234 | 08:06:27 |
| ryan | This seems doable | 08:06:37 |
