Fix the tests so that they can run without secrets.json.

Thumbnail images should really be saved in the user's cache directory. When those image URLs are loaded again, the image should be read from the cache instead of the network

Add an app icon.

The project has two categories of tests: logical unit tests, and API spec tests.

The logical unit tests should pass every time. The API spec tests might fail if the Lemmy server changes its API shape. If this happens, Cavy needs to be updated to address it, but it shouldn't block other PRs.

I'm not satisfied with the way the comment list behaves. Scrolling occasionally behaves erratically, and collapsing comments causes children to blink away instead of animating away smoothly.

For posts (and any other direct-linkable content), allow the user to bring up the iOS share sheet so they can share the content via messages, email, or other social media apps.

Relates to #5

Many social media apps empower users to view images on a black background so the user can zoom in.

Draw inspiration from Twitterific, Tweetbot, or Apollo

Lemmy allows users to choose a sort algorithm for their posts and comments. The user should have the ability to choose a sort order (and see what the active sort order is) within the Cavy app

Cavy currently only has one dependency – MarkdownUI, which is used to render markdown text in SwiftUI

I would prefer if we could remove this dependency so Cavy can be a zero-dependency application. (fewer dependencies means the application is less likely to cause issues for new developers)

Allow users to sign into the app. Prefer OAuth over of a native username/password form. Make sure to store credentials (e.g. OAuth tokens) in the secure keychain instead of unencrypted storage.

www.chapo.chat enforces a rule that all users must display their pronouns. This should be enforced by the app as well.

For long lists of communities, empower users to scroll infinitely so they can find the community they want.

When viewing image posts, empower the user to save the image to their photo library (or files).

Current comment list style is too crowded which makes the experience unpleasant. Could be improved

I think the comment UI in Apollo (indie reddit client) looks good. I want it to behave like that without being a direct rip-off

Show a few screens to educate the user on how Lemmy differs from conventional social media sites.

Will need to come up with copy and illustrations.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Vote on a post from the listing view
2. Scroll the list up or down until the cell is clearly off the screen
3. Scroll the post back into frame
4. Your vote has disappeared

In the communities list view for an instance, the user should have the power to search. This will be especially useful for instances that have many many communities.

The Text component in Swift UI provides some pretty intelligent string interpolation. Numbers are automatically formatted with locale-aware formatting (e.g. commas separating thousands and millions for US users).

However due to a short-sighted implementation decision, the number formatting is not applied to the site summary screen

For image posts

When the user navigates to a post list, the content in the title bar starts out at a good size, but then it awkwardly pops up to a larger font size. It should stay the same size.

Design a few custom themes and allow a user to choose one for the whole app.

We'll need a preview UI

Stretch goals:

• allow a user to assign a "light" theme and a "dark" theme independently.
• allow a user to customize themes per instance.

Not sure I have a compelling-enough story for tabs in the app.

Might need to design a custom tab bar.

Add web socket support to the app.

Should the user have the ability to choose between RESTful and web socket connections?

On the post list screen and the comment list screen the app should support pull to refresh
