Well, that's super helpful by itself!

There are a couple other things you may be about to do as well, such as:

  • translations - if you speak another language; I'm happy to help guide
  • filing bugs/commenting on bugs on GitHub with information on how to reproduce

But honestly, just engaging with people here is super helpful.

Thanks for the advice!!

I don't have a github account yet (only "lurked" there so far) but I'm going to create one in case I find something to contribute for bugs.

As for language, yeah English is not my first language, there's a server dedicated to people from my country, no idea if they're already contributing to localization but I'll go check.

Well, if you get around to it, here's where the translations are:

https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/tree/main/app/src/main/res/values

That directory has the English terms (look at strings.xml), and the one above has directories for each language. If your language doesn't exist there, you can make a new directory for it.

If you don't want to make a GitHub account or don't feel comfortable contributing changes, you can always leave a post here with your translations and someone will get it contributed.
