Mobile and web app to create new links in a noclick.me server.
License: Other
Links don't show the common "click" hand cursor by default and not having it looks very weird in devices with a pointer (like web or linux). At least the expanded URL and the supporting link are affected by this.
We should be aware of the API rate limits and show the user appropriate messages when they are consumed.
We also should make the limits visible, as for now we use them as a way to keep traffic and CPU usage low enough to use free hosting services. Users should be encouraged to support the project to increase or lift up those limits.
The expanded link is now shown in the same field as the original URL was introduced. This have some usability issues, as the URL can't be seen completely (which is more or less the point of it). Also in the web, for some reason is almost impossible to select and copy the text.
There are a few things to review about the license:
LICENSE
file includes a section on how to apply the license, this should be removed.LICENSE
(add copyright notice to source files, etc.).There is a very handy widget called AboutDialog that automatically add a "show licenses" button that will show the licenses of all the packages the app depends on, and any extra licenses that one might want to add.
This page should have:
After a URL was expanded, if the NEW LINK button is pressed, the previous URL is shown, which is a bit annoying as you probably want to enter a new one instead.
The Expand
button in the current URL form will move when validation fails, as the error message makes the row containing the button higher and the button is centered vertically.
Using flutter_linkify
seemed convenient at first but it doesn't work so good with web (links don't get a corresponding mouse pointer for clickable elements and it is not actually selectable).
Ideally an Android app with a particular ID should be associated to one particular signing key.
When building Android APKs/App bundles in the CI, we should sign them if they are compiled with --release
(right now they are not, as of #49). But if we do so, we need to either use the production signing key (probably bad) or use a different signing key, but then the app won't be upgradable if downloaded from the artifacts as the keys don't match.
Probably the best solution is to create a new Android ID (like me.noclick.app.debug
) and have a special signing key for that, which can be used to sign automatically for release artifacts produced by the CI.
Add a link to a contact e-mail in the footer.
Now that Flutter 2 was released, the web platform is in stable and desktop platforms are included as a beta snapshot, so there is even no need to be on beta to get desktop (although desktop updates will flow into stable much more slowly than in beta, so if we plan to use it more seriously it will be probably necessary to switch back).
If the server returns an status code other than 404, the error is not handled properly and a null-pointer-exption is thrown.
Commits to the web.noclick.me repo should be signed, for this we have to:
Domains with non-ascii characters are being URL-encoded, which is not correct.
For example if examplé.com
is entered in the URL input, it will be converted to https://exampl%C3%A9.com
, which is wrong.

By having both combined, GitHub doesn't identify the license and it is not visible enough that the project uses AGPL.
Add a link to the source code in the footer.
The CI is now using the debug signing key to sign APKs, but the release key should be used, so users can upgrade from these released APKs without getting key conflicts.
This could be for the play store, the app icons or both. For simplicity probably only the app store.
The app still have the Flutter icon for the mobile launcher and the favicon of the web app. It should be replaced by a custom app icon.
Add a link to twitter in the footer.
At the moment the expanded link is shown in the same input box where the user enters the original URL. This is just a very ugly hack which is confusing and it can recursively generate expanded links (at least until noclickd
rejects expanding links from itself).
A better approach would be to show the link below the form to create new links, presenting a way to easily preview the link (as in getting all the information that will be displayed when visiting the link).
