Dipping my toes into developing a Lemmy client.. Whats the best place to ask questions? :)

3 years ago by Prefix to c/programming

Hi folks!

I am a new convert coming over from Reddit. I want to build out a Lemmy React Native client. Woo!

I'm very familiar with frontend dev and react (been doing so for a solid chunk of my career), however I am quite new to the Fediverse and not entirely sure how to build federated applications.

I see the lemmy-js-client which will likely help me tremendously, but it's not terribly documented.

Anyone else out there hacking on a TypeScript/React based Lemmy client and willing to share notes? :)

I’ve been wondering the same!

Does anyone know of any Lemmy dev communities (preferably a Lemmy community but I’d settle for a Discord) dedicated to resource for software devs to learn the protocol? I’m interested in creating bots to help Reddit users and subreddits migrate here.

Check out Lemmy Project Chat. They link to it in the dev documentation for lemmy.
