14 hours ago @BDVGitHub asked in a previous issue some questions:
@overflorian do you use Penpot to create the UI or what do you use and how can we use the screens that you create to import in Android Studio?
Yes I do. I have no idea how to connect it with downstream tools but I've very open to suggestions. Would you like to run a test together to see if it works? Let's discuss it in private. I've been working alone on the Penpot project for now but I would LOVE to collaboratively create interfaces. Not sure how to do it, nevertheless. I don't see any "share publicly this project" button in Penpot. Again, help is welcome.
I'll see if I can find out if there is a possibility within Penpot to connect it downstream...
You can export the interface in (svg + json) format see Penpot Export They also mention something about "Exported files linked to shared libraries provide different ways to export their assets. Choose the one that suits you better." But have not yet been able to find out what they mean by this and what exactly you can do with this....
To collaboratively create interfaces in Penpot I think you need to create a team. In the pen pot at the top left you have a button "your Penpot", click on it, then you will see a plus sign with "create new team" next to it. Then choose a team name and create a team. Then you should see a button "invite members" my email address is brecht.devriese92@gmail.com
Is this the final design? #101 (comment)
It's unclear of what you mean by "final design". As I am self-taught designer, my designs are very basics, only visuals. They do not allow to directly create clean code. Therefore, our developer @OtterWays looks at my designs and implement them on her side. So there is always a part of interpretation.
By "final design" I actually meant whether this is the final version of these screens or not. I understand the confusion because the UI will never really be finished...
So what I wanted to check was whether these screens have undergone adjustments afterwards or not and therefore whether or not they can be used in the app.

This second design have been made by an ex-designer of the team with Figma. I don't have the source files neither the licence for Figma so it would be very difficult to re-create this design, sorry.
Thank you, that's a good suggestion. I leave it to @OtterWays to make the call but I'm in favour of this choice.
Yes, that's always a win if we can use a proper open source library.
This would be currently very low on the roadmap, unfortunately. The reason is that we are still in beta version: the walls are not yet built, so we are not ready to pick the wallpaper yet.
That's a good idea but again, I'm afraid it would be for later. We still don't even have any menu yet!
