Software to install

Android Studio

Android Studio is the IDE we use to code this app. And while the download of >1GB is running in the background, you can sit back and dream about unicorns 🦄.

🦄 Unicorn

Unicorn is a command-line tool for automating tasks like assigning issues and creating pull requests (PRs), as well as releasing new versions with auto-generated changelogs.

Tip: If you like using Unicorn, please give it a star!

Windows users:
Download unicorn.zip from the latest release. Unzip it to some folder folder, and add <path-to>\folder\unicorn\bin to your Path environment variable. When using Powershell you have to run the following command to reload this variable:
$env:Path = [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","Machine") + ";" + [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","User")

You can now use Unicorn as unicorn <command> from anywhere via the command line! 🦄

ZenHub

We use ZenHub to keep track of issues. Just sign in and follow the instructions.

GitHub Desktop

GitHub Desktop is recommended for working with the repository locally, especially if you are new to Git.

Cloning

Open your favourite Git tool and clone this repository to your local machine.

Tip: Clone it to a folder that doesn't contain any whitespace in its path, as some tools have problems with that.
