It can still be built from the ground up but still uses the same design. If it's a native app written in Swift not a PWA like Voyager I'd say that from the ground up still applies. Because you still need to code everything from scratch.

It’s written in React Native, with some Swift modules here and there. I wrote down some more in depth behind the scenes in a previous post.

When Apollo shut down I really missed it in my day to day use, so initially this project started out as a personal project to see if I could replace that Apollo craving. Since then the development was going so well that I wanted to share it with the rest of the community as well.

Since then I’ve also build some things that imho are an improvement, for example:

  • the onboarding
  • the markdown editor
  • the chat interface for private messages

It’s been really fun to work on, but now that the basis is quite stable I’ll look into features that make it more tailored to Lemmy
