[Install flutter](https://flutter.dev) 2. Clone the repo: ``` git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/famedly/fluffychat cd fluffychat ``` 3. Choose your target platform below and enable support for it. 4. Debug with: `flutter run` ### Android * Install CMake from the SDK Manager * Install ninja: ``` sudo apt install ninja-build ``` * Build with: `flutter build apk` ### iOS / iPadOS * With xcode you can't build a release version without our cert. :-/ Use `flutter run --profile` to have a working version on your iOS device. ### Web * Enable web support in Flutter: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/web * Optionally edit the file `lib/app_config.dart`. If you e.g. only want to change the default homeserver, then only modify the `defaultHomeserver` key. * Build with: ```bash ./scripts/prepare-web.sh flutter clean flutter pub get flutter build web --release --verbose ``` * Optionally configure by serving a `config.json` at the same path as fluffychat. An example can be found at `config.sample.json`. None of these values have to exist, the ones stated here are the default ones. If you e.g. only want to change the default homeserver, then only modify the `default_homeserver` key. ### Desktop (Linux, Windows, macOS) * Enable Desktop support in Flutter: https://flutter.dev/desktop * Build with one of these: ```bash flutter build linux --release flutter build windows --release flutter build macos --release ``` ## How to add translations for your language You can use Weblate to translate the app to your language: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fluffychat/ If you want to get your translated strings approved, please ask in our support room! 1. Replace the non-translated string in the codebase: ``` Text("Hello world"), ``` with a method call: ``` Text(L10n.of(context).helloWorld), ``` and add the following import if missing: ``` import 'package:flutter_gen/gen_l10n/l10n.dart'; ``` 2. Add the string to `/lib/l10n/l10n_en.arb`: (The following example need to be sorounded by the usual json `{}` and after the `@@locale` key) Example A: ``` "helloWorld": "Hello World!", "@helloWorld": { "description": "The conventional newborn programmer greeting" } ``` Example B: ``` "hello": "Hello {userName}", "@hello": { "description": "A message with a single parameter", "placeholders": { "userName": { "type": “String”, “example”: “Bob” } } } ``` 3. For testing just run a regular build without extras # Special thanks to * Fabiyamada is a graphics designer from Brasil and has made the fluffychat logo and the banner.
