At the time of writing Summit for Lemmy should be completely open source.
After a lot of contemplation I’ve decided to open source the app. There are still some changes that probably need to happen before it can be considered “FOSS” but this is a huge step I think.
As I’m voiced my opinions on this previously, the main repository for Summit will not be to the public for PRs. If you encounter bugs or have any feature requests please continue to send them through the proper channels (ideally to this community).
Enjoy~~

I don’t know what it is, I went to the repo on github to read the readme, I still have no idea what it is. There is not a single sentence which explains what this is.
At the top it says it’s something for Lemmy, at least I know what Lemmy is, but most people don’t. So it might be a plugin, a theme, a frontend, an app, who knows.
Later it mentions apk, so perhaps it’s a android app, for phone or some car or other embedded devices?
Hello I’m the developer here. The reason why the readme is completely unhelpful is simple. I wrote it for myself. It was a readme i wrote for myself on how to do certain things LOL.
Probably the best solution short term is to just like yo the website at the very top: https://summit.idunnololz.com/.
Edit: also in my defense the code repo was open sourced less than 24h ago on a whim and I’ve had a few bugs I’ve been trying to tackle all week:

I love that you link Obtanium. This is the first time I saw an app dev actually linking to Obtanium. Getting your FOSS app update directly from the git repos without the google bs around it just seems logical.
This drives me crazy with software websites and GitHub repos. Sometimes they’ll give you a hint that involves other undefined things like, “This lets you use Floorp with Bibix.”
Nice. Hopefully somebody puts it up on FDroid.
Very sweet. Thank you!!
It’s on my to-do but the process seems annoying potentially so we’ll see. I just wanted to open source the project so there is at least some progress. I was finding myself making long lists of shit to do before I can open source the project but you know what fk those lists and just open source it now. Ask questions later. :D
