Android TV? #1034

Open BenjaminLefoul opened 4 years ago

BenjaminLefoul commented 4 years ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but I suspect it would be fairly easy to do a port for Android TV.

It would be very nice to be able to play / analyse on a large screen with study groups.

This builds and installs on my mibox 3 but the navigation is impossible: https://github.com/BenjaminLefoul/lichobile

If you want to submit a PR that adds Android TV functionality without breaking the phone/tablet experience, that would be very interesting.

Hi @freefal ! The problem is D-pad navigation. I don't know how to implement it in the ionic framework, but it seems possible:

Any tip is welcome.
