I made a keyboard because I needed one and nothing on Android was built for blind users.

@Tamasg @alexchapman Issues, feature requests, bug reports are fine. Because I can choose what I do with them easier than I can with something that took a real person real time to put effort into making because they had to understand the undocumented hell that is android accessibility to make a well thought out request, or not and then I have to reject and have this back and fourth about why I won't be merging it.

@fireborn @alexchapman oof yeah! Tell me about it, all the random compose bugs I come across both at work and now when building the Android app... Yeah. Totally a hellscape. But one that if you do right, it can be good, it just requires hours of debugging sometimes and 30 app reinstalls on a phone. Ha, ha. Will read this post more after work, I'm glad you put that out.

@Tamasg @alexchapman compose is its own special hell

@alexchapman @fireborn oooh wait doesn't that one compile to React Native though? From what I hear that one has weakpoints on iOS. When I saw some of them used React and reimplemented it as React Native, hmm, I was a little wheery. Gosh oh gosh. Nothing's perfect in this framework-filled world. xD

@alexchapman @Tamasg i thought about just going the route of xml views but ive figured out enough of compose's strangeness
-
@alexchapman @fireborn I'm excited to know that. Will be useful to also hear of any bumps even you come to, there's certain teams at work who are thinking of going React Native rout and while I've discouraged it a year or two ago maybe my answer can be more optimistic if there's real work getting done. Especially if you're ever able to bridge things like custom actions over with one React code on both platforms, hella cool.

@Tamasg @fireborn Oh yeah I was able to do custom actions, if you wanna take a look at what I've done so far here's the repo: https://github.com/g4p-studios/thrive-expo
