what about mobile version ? it's can be good idea :)

zunjae commented 6 years ago

I don't believe this issue belongs here. This is an electron based application which can not run on mobile.

For a mobile version, the best way is building an streaming website, I guess.

@zunjae The architecture of this application is not very tied to electron so this might be possible, the only work needed here is just how to package it and try the responsiveness of the website

@JuanjoSalvador not realy an anime website is just another solution to watch animes, both have they associated pros and cons

I would have preferred the question to be on Discord but it's fine here since not everyone is on Discord and people keep asking me 😄 . Still, as @DeltaEvo mentionned, electron, here in KawAnime is only a wrapper so it is definitely possible to port the actual app on mobile.

For a mobile version, the best way is building an streaming website, I guess.

There are other ways to make KawAnime on mobile, there are electron-like frameworks that aims towards this purpose (native-script, vuex, ...).

As for the mobile version, I talked a lot about it in the Discord server so here's a sum up. There are important features I want to develop before working on a mobile version (streaming, in-app nyaa browser, kitsu implementation etc...).

It is planned and I'm already keeping an eye on the frameworks / librairies that would allow me to build a mobile app. Most likely, when you'll see KawAnime being at v1.0.0, this will mean that I'll then be working a lot on a mobile app.

I too, would really love to have KawAnime on my phone 😢

Still, I'm always glad if people want to help and port the Desktop app onto mobile before v1.0.0 😄
