It runs on android today, you just need to run ‘cargo apk run —release’. Its just not consumer-ready. We have the mvp milestone on GitHub if you want to follow along or help

ok, i greb

yes but if i understand it still can't has keybeard

You can track the progress on this here: https://github.com/damus-io/android/issues/60

Whats cool is once we fix this then the entire rust + egui ecosystem will have access to text input on android. Ideally this would have been done before we got here but I guess this is cutting edge stuff.

this is already possible with gio and golang btw

mike annoys me and i hate rust and go has been able to do all this shit for like 5 years... i very nearly released a full pure go bitcoin fork that had a working gui wallet that would have been deployable on android back in 2020

but they did unfortunately change so much of the API that my custom widgets are not usable anymore on the current version
