What's about an app that helps you with downloading openSUSE documentation?
Does a free app for managing gettext files (.pot, .po) already exist?
Looking for hackers with the skills:

"intent" is a form of IPC in android. One thing I wanted when I played with android was an "intent" bridge to do debugging and functional testing, I was going to do this via RabbitMQ but sort of lost interest in Android. Maybe you should add this to your plans as it might help you make the product more "production quality" easier.

I'm running through http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html - nice to see a "hello world" on my phone, even if it did require almost no effort to create ;-)
OpenJDK seems to work fine, BTW, I didn't bother with the Oracle one, and I'm using Android Studio rather than Eclipse.

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
Resources
- Android SDK/NDK and emulator
- Qt Quick
Advent of Code: The Diaries by amanzini
Description
It was the Night Before Compile Time ...
Hackweek 25 (December 1-5) perfectly coincides with the first five days of Advent of Code 2025. This project will leverage this overlap to participate in the event in real-time.
To add a layer of challenge and exploration (in the true spirit of Hackweek), the puzzles will be solved using a non-mainstream, modern language like D, Crystal, Gleam or Zig.
The primary project intent is not just simply to solve the puzzles, but to exercise result sharing and documentation. I'd create a public-facing repository documenting the process. This involves treating each day's puzzle as a mini-project: solving it, then documenting the solution with detailed write-ups, analysis of the language's performance and ergonomics, and visualizations.
