Hi everyone,

I previously promised to open-source our apps once the stable versions were available in the stores. They’re now live, so here’s the code.

These are native apps built with SwiftUI on iOS and Kotlin / Jetpack Compose on Android. They support browsing topics, posting and replying, chat, private messages, search, and notifications, along with NodeLoc’s custom features.

**The apps were built specifically for NodeLoc. [https://www.nodeloc.com](https://www.nodeloc.com) They are not fully compatible with a standard Discourse installation.** Parts depend on our plugins and custom APIs, so please treat the code as a reference if you’re building something similar. Adapting it to another community will require changes.

- **iOS:** [Source code](https://github.com/nodeloc/nodeloc_ios) · [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nodeloc/id6807627170)
- **Android:** [Source code](https://github.com/nodeloc/nodeloc-android) · [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nodeloc.app)

Hope this is useful to others working on mobile apps for Discourse. Happy to discuss the implementation, and PRs are welcome!
