Creating Showdown App

[Porsche Speed]

Hello, I was wondering if I can start building a pokemon showdown app I made apps before so I do have experience but I want permission before I try to do it,

Layell edit: Please do not request a mobile app, if you want one feel free to start making it yourself.

I don't see why not, go for it :)

You can't... the source code for PS is all open source on github, you can fork the repositories and go from there, with literally 0 changes to the main repository.

server:
http://psim.us/server.git

client:
http://psim.us/client.git

From what I've heard, people have offered to make apps before and have never finished/gone through with it but you might as well try. I'd like a version of showdown that was more optimized for phones and tablets, although it works on any mobile browser anyway.

Not that easy.

Not that easy.

Forking it requires the click of one button - Fork. There isn't much to it. From there, you are free to modify it as you wish.

You wanted a place to start, I gave you one...

If you are expecting making an app for showdown to be easy, go for another project

The thing is, i think the app would just contain the chat rooms, thats what i would find ideal. Im not making the app and the showdown staff and making the app. You can take a crack i guess. But. Meh, i dont think we'd see it for a long time tbh. :/
