Hey everyone! Check out Lunar, A Lemmy client I'm making for iOS using SwiftUI

Just note that Lunar is still a very early work in progress, so it's not available on the App Store or TestFlight just yet. But I'm actively working on it for release.

If you're curious and want to take a peek, you can run a preview on your iPhone using a Mac and Xcode. The instructions are in the GitHub repository, so feel free to give it a try and share your thoughts!

Since I'm still learning app development, any feedback and suggestions from you would be greatly appreciated.

Lunar is an open-source project, and I'd love for you to be part of it. If you're into coding or just want to lend a hand, let's collaborate. Feel free to contribute ideas or raise Pull Requests to make Lunar even better.

Github: https://github.com/mani-sh-reddy/Lunar-Lemmy-iOS

Edit: Created a community for it to keep everyone updated https://lemmy.world/c/lunar_for_lemmy_ios

Lmao. Lemmy users are literally being showered with apps. It's like Christmas every day

And yet, here I am still using Lemmy with Voyager/wefwef, a web app I don't even have to install on my phone. Works like a a charm and has a developer who is responsive and listens to it's users.

Dude, I hope you didn't take it the wrong way! This wasn't meant as a commentary on you not listening to your users but as a commentary on how great it is in the "sphere" of Lemmy apps, where user and developer are much closer and talk to each other.

I regularly try other apps for Lemmy and with the exception of Lemmur there is always a group of enthusiastic people for each app who are really invested in their favorite app getting better. I love that!

I am sure you are part of that good developer culture!

Cheers!

Lol all good. My comment was meant to be more playful than serious.

Lemmur was abandoned before the blackout even happened. Liftoff is based off the abandoned code.
