Create alternative to the multi-platform Qur'an app, Ayat #9

Open Sadmansamee opened 4 years ago

Sadmansamee commented 4 years ago

Ayat is a Quran project from King Saud University, it has the following platforms: iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, Web, Linux. so users have a similar experience on all the platforms, but unfortunately, this project is deprecated.

The reason that is important

  1. Those who memorize Quran wants to have similar actual Mushaf experience, as an example Quran for Android or Quran for iOS have different highly modified Quran image than actual Madina mushaf which is crucial for a memorizer to have similar look and feel for visual memorization purpose, or other alternatives aren't available across the platforms.
  2. A person might want to switch platforms and revise their Quran reading on another platform.
  3. All the current projects are different in their own ways and have different codebase thus keep maintaining and adding new features is difficult.
  4. After deprecating of Ayat there is no similar solution that works well on all the platforms with similar experience.

My proposal: Develop a Quran project with Flutter, with Flutter it is possible to have a single codebase for all the platforms with similar experience while having single Codebase will make it easier to maintain and keep developing. I have started a project that is here, I'm looking for more contributors.

I would also consider making this web-based, since with PWA features, web apps can be run as native apps on most platforms.

@nailhuseyn that project is fundamentally different from Ayat or related app.

I was looking for api for Ayat to contribute to it. Luckily i found this Issue. I would like to contribute to this as well isA as I had also intention to port it to flutter.

I’d suggest to create a slack channel or so to gather contributors for discussion and identify a milestones timeline
