I just joined from the reddit-exidus. I’m very impressed by all the hard work going into Lemmy. If you want to help fight off the next wave of the hug of death, you can support: https://join-lemmy.org/donate
Yeah it’s a little clunky but the beauty is that the reddit we all want is a very lightweight minimalist app anyway so it’s a lot easier to replicate than if they were building another bloated app like the official one
It all starts somewhere, right? We’ll be up to speed in no time at this rate
Same. It’s cool to be in this early and hopefully be able to watch it grow. Now to get my SO to join too. She is a habitual lurker. I have a big mouth, go figure.
I’m curios to know how can I help with developing lenmy-ui. It is made with React fork, which I know very well.
Here is the GitHub https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy
The front-end repository is actually: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui
Edit: I suggested some changes to the default theme. Here is the link if anyone wants to take a look: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1183
Yeah, I’ve been there, just haven’t found clear contribution instructions, will check again. Thanks!
There is a contribution guide available here.
