BeatBump apk/F-droid? #59

Will beatbump ever be available in app form (please, please, please)? If so, will it be available on F-droid

This project currently only has one developer, so creating and maintaining a completely new project would be a huge task for even a full-time developer and near impossible for someone working off of donations in their free time, so Beatbump will stay as a web-based project for the foreseeable future

Pardon the intrusion, but I was inspired by beatbump so I started working on an application to accomplish a similar job on android (probably just an excuse to learn a new framework - jetpack compose - also, you know, using a web browser is not a wonderful experience). I'm not even sure it will see the light of day, but this is what it currently looks like:

That looks great! I'm honestly surprised that no one else has thought to do this earlier but I'm glad the app looks so good already

You can package a progressive web app as an apk and distribute it on the play store, fdroid and on github using TWA

I didn't know that was possible, that would be great to get done then😆

It would be great if you published your progress on github, even in the early stages. If it was I could do testing on the app for you. (I'm not a great coder, but I enjoy being parts of the communities, so often my contributions are from pre-testing).

@edl2 The app is far from being in an early stage right now, there's a ton of stuff to figure out before worrying about user-related tests.

Doing good UI/UX from scratch is hard, Android developing is a frustrating experience overall, Youtube returns inconsistent, badly organized data... It will take time

Now the app is available on GitHub if you want to try it, under ViMusic.
