Considering this is a Svelte project, it probably wouldn’t be too hard for me to fork (I’m a Svelte and SvelteKit dev). I’d definitely rewrite the UI, cause the current UI is… unpolished.

How much support could I expect to fork this project? Is there anyone that would be willing to help?

Better contribute to Photon, which Tesseract was forked from originally.

Tesseract is very much different from Proton by now however

I'm working on a new fediverse software but I'm mostly a backend dev. But I have been learning Svelte/Kit to try and write a frontend. Just putting it out there in case you feel inspired to work on something entirely new :)

I wrote Svelte Material UI, so I could definitely help you with UI stuff. Do you have a public repo?

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I feel the state of the project is still too early to be public (especially the frontend, there's really almost nothing there yet), but I can invite you to the repo if you have a user on Codeberg? I'd love to talk if you have a Matrix user.

I don’t yet, but I can make a user. Let me do that tomorrow, and I’ll reply here again with it.

Great!

Any particular reason to keep it private?

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I'd rather ensure that I have something a bit more concrete to show before I "announce" it. First impressions matter a lot. And also, there's just not a whole lot to show right now and it is not in any kind of usable state so unless someone is truly interested in working with me on this project (with a somewhat similar idea of a vision of where it's gonna go and all that...), there's really no use in sharing it.

Yeah, but doesn't it go both ways? How can people find out if their vision is aligned with yours unless you show what you have?

I mean, I share the feeling of not wanting to make any big announcement when it's not usable, but at least putting out a link to the repo and some roadmap would help others to see if they would be interested in helping you.

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It does - but I'm honestly also still refining that vision as I work on it and I want to have a coherent story and something to show before I show anything to the world. Just what I'm most comfortable with :)

ok. Can I get an invite to the repo, then? :) I'm https://codeberg.org/raphael.
