Welcome to Kickstarter’s open source Android app! Come on in, take your shoes
off, stay a while—explore how Kickstarter’s native squad has built and
continues to build the app, discover our implementation of RxJava in logic-
filled view models,
and maybe even create an issue or two.
We’ve also open sourced our iOS app, written in Swift:
check it out here. Read more about our journey to open source here.
