The project aims at kick-starting an Android application to manage libvirt-based VMs and containers. The libvirt build on android expedition has already been completed during hackweek 10 and refreshed here. Which leaves for hackweek to use libvirt-java bindings to use it.
This project is part of:

The hard work to bind all libs together and get them running on Android ARM is done... the 'boring' job to actually implement a real application still needs to be finished.
Code can be found on github.com/cbosdo/libvirt-droid

Create an Android app for Syncthing as part of the Syncthing Tray project by mkittler
Description
There's already an app but code/features already in Syncthing Tray could be reused to create a nicer app with additional features like managing ignore patterns more easily. The additional UI code for the app could then in turn be re-used by other parts of Syncthing Tray, e.g. to implement further steps in the wizard as requested by some users. This way one "UI wrapper codebase" could serve GNU/Linux, Windows and Android (and in theory MacOS) at the same time which is kind of neat.
Goals
- DONE: Learn more about development for Android and development of UIs with Qt Quick
- DONE: Create an experimental app reusing as much existing Syncthing Tray code as possible
- DONE: Build Syncthing as a library also for Android and use it in the app (already done but needs further testing and integration with the rest of the app configuration)
- DONE: Update the Syncthing Tray website, documentation
- DONE: Extend the app so it has at least a start page and an import
- Update forum thread
- DONE: Upload an experimental build on GitHub
- Extend the Syncthing API to download single files on demand (instead of having to sync the whole directory or use ignore patterns)
- Bring back parts of the newly developed mobile UI back to Syncthing Tray on the desktop to fully benefit from the cross-platform development
- Add UI to add/edit folders and devices in desktop tray app
- Add UI to show out-of-sync items in desktop tray app
- Create an alternative "AppWindow" tailored for desktop platforms reusing UI components developed for the mobile app
