vvp (DISCONTINUED IN FAVOUR OF THE OFFICIAL APP (Apple/Android)

This is the inoffical iOS client for the german anti-fake-news-collective volksverpetzer (yes it is really against fake-news and does studies and proofs and stuff like that, the translation is like "people's tattletale").

Disclaimer

This is solely a free-time project of my own, volksverpetzer and their respective representatives have nothing to do with it. The only thing they are responsible for is the content of the articles shown. This, in return, means that I am not responsible for any content, only for how it is presented.

It simply exists because the founder of the collective suggested to implement an app (as a possible project for them, again, I am simply doing this because I want, not them). For more information, please have a look at the LICENSE.

Building and Installing

I will supply IPAs soon. Meanwhile, you have to download and install Xcode, open the projec

  • either run directly on your iPhone
  • or archive it, open your favorite terminal, type xcodebuild -exportArchive -archivePath <archive_file.xcarchive> -exportPath ~/Downloads -exportOptionsPlist dist_conf.plist (dist_conf.plist is in the repo) and sideload it via i.e. Sideloadly

For easier use, I will supply IPAs to sideload directly and/or publish on an inofficial store that does not require jailbraking.

Targets

  • create an app that is able to show lists of articles and the content of them (mostly done; only thing excluded for now is embedded stuff like YouTube videos or twitter posts)
  • make stuff readable offline (done)
  • archive them (mostly done; one thing missing is displaying locally stored revisions and an image archive)
  • share them (done)
  • create them (authed only)(highly optional)
  • translate UI to german (done)

Targets marked "(authed only)" are not reachable for now because I need an auth key access the required endpoints. I'll contact the collective as soon as I have something to present.

TODOs

  • open URLs in webviews instead of Safari.app
  • bring style into line with website
  • more unique news entries (with a possible switch to UICollectionView?)
  • declutter
