This repo is also mirrored to Codeberg.

I made an easy to use ToDo app, just to learn a bit about programming and Flutter. It does not really provide any benefits over other ToDo apps, but I am glad that I was able to make this.

You can download the APK for Android, rpm for RHEL/Fedora or just use the AppImage.

I am willing to work more on this, you can read the roadmap in the link provided.

Any guidance, criticisms, or comments will be greatly appreciated.

Well done dude! Thanks for contributing to the FOSS community <3 I'll make sure to try it out this week.

[-] Vigilante@lemmy.today 20 points 7 months ago

Thanks for contributing to foss do try to get it into fdroid

[-] Pantherina@feddit.de 11 points 7 months ago

Or use IzzyOnDroid which is way easier and ships your release apk

Hi,

Thank you for offering an alternative.

The interface is pretty barebones, even for a "keep it simple" app.

I'd be wise to consider making those tiles smaller, having huge boxes containing 45% decoration isn't the best I think.

Else, I'd add sync or access to calDAV items as soon as possible.

Cheers

Thank you for these suggestions! I'll be working on sync or import/export, right after I fix the UI. Making the items editable is another thing I need to add.

Where did you learn flutter?

[-] nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 7 months ago

I started with YouTube (via Invidious), and then it was just hunting for "how do I add this thing in Flutter" on search engines and forums.

I was thinking of cloning some android only notes app with flutter with Markdown support, but I finished learning flutter a few weeks ago... so good luck to me I guess.

[-] nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 7 months ago

All the best! 🍀

[-] 4vr@lemmy.ca 5 points 7 months ago

Well done. UX is where most FOSS app let users down. Hope you can improve the UX still keeping it simple.

If it’s made in flutter, doesn’t that mean you easily publish it to the iOS App Store? Isn’t the main point of flutter to publish to both iOS and Android?

[-] nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 7 months ago

That is correct, but I'll need either a Macintosh machine, or a VM to compile the app. Then, I'll have to pay a fee to Apple to publish this on their App Store. I haven't even made a .deb package, as of now, because I use Fedora and am too lazy to spin up a VM.

But if I get to implement everything I have in mind, for this app, I'll surely release it on every platform possible.

[-] SuperFola@programming.dev 11 points 7 months ago

Well I mean if you want to pay 99$ each year, yes

[-] Perfide@reddthat.com 8 points 7 months ago

Only if they have access to a mac and xcode would it be easy. Trying to develop anything for iPhone, even a fairly simple website, can be a genuine nightmare without the proper tools for testing, let alone an actual app. I once spent over 2 days trying to solve a bug that I was able to resolve in like 5 minutes after finally admitting defeat and borrowing my brothers macbook.

This is the first app I've ever made, so, I don't know what exactly the reason is for that. However, I think this is because I made it with Flutter instead of something lower lever like Java.

[-] rdri@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Yes, that's correct.
