## Project Objectives
* Have a native app client on mobile (Apple and Android) and desktop (Linux, Mac, and Windows)
* Providing a simpler UX for people to interact with Friendica
* Providing a better low-bandwidth environment experience than the web-app version running in a browser
* Reduce server side loading in the new fediverse era by doing techniques like leveraging paging of comments, local
caching, and lazy loading.
* Provide more intuitive mechanisms for adding things like Content Warning/Spoiler text and image ALT-text
## Current Status
