Android@lemmy.world•What is the best way to create an android app in 2025?English
5·10 months agoAnticipate technical debt and follow what Google recommends. In few words, use Kotlin and Compose.
However you should really have a look on Google guidelines. In more worlds:
- by default Kotlin and Compose
- if some logic to share between other projects in other environments: Kotlin Multi Platform (KMP)
- if shared UI: Flutter (but Google reduced Flutter teams and KMP is being better and better, so we can suppose Flutter will join the Google Graveyard

Android@lemmy.world•What Keepass client do you use?English
11·11 months agoYou can use also for example Strongbox (https://github.com/strongbox-password-safe)
Edit: sorry, didn’t see this thread is in Android community, my comment is not relevant for this platform. For Android I am used to Keepass2Android (https://github.com/PhilippC/keepass2android). Simple, still maintained, under libre licence GPL 3.0.

Programming@programming.dev•How do i ask for contributors to my open source projects?
7·1 year agoBe sure also the issues you have in your project have the suitable labels to help future contributors to pick easily some of them, i.e. labels like “help wanted” or “good first issue”.
You can also refer to best practices listed and explained for example in Advent of Open Source so as to have a nice and user-friendly repo: https://adventofopensource.com/

Programming@programming.dev•Is there a way to hide dependabot commits in the history of a repo?
21·1 year agoBTW I hope any project won’t increase the Z version only by including Dependabot commits, it would be insane. Release must be documented, tested, with CHANGELOG updated. If some maintainers just accept Dependabot commits without checking, move away. That’s just simple crappy auto-merge.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•How big is your desk?
4·2 years agoThat is the reason why some developers are “full stack”. All computers are stacked 🤪

11·2 years agoWhy did you say Write Freely seems to be dead? According to their GitHub organisation repositories, the backend has a release tagged 4 months ago and the iOS app 3 months ago.









That’s vibe coding.
