We have received an exciting and generous proposal from a dedicated AndBible user, aimed at accelerating the development of key features and general improvements.
The user has offered a “matching” contribution, committing to pay half the cost of developing specific feature requests if another individual or group is willing to fund the remaining half. This collaborative approach helps prioritize and expedite the implementation of highly requested features.
The feature tickets included in this matching offer are:
- #2583 – Make volume up/down keys optional
- #3388 – MySword module rendering issues
- #2743 – Improve reading plan title texts
- #2490 – Allow apocrypha in MyBible SQLite3 modules parsed and displayed in the app
- #1411 – Find from multiple translations at once
- #3403 – Make Nextcloud sync folder location customizable
- #3404 – Autofill new label title with label search text
- #1746 – Add a bookmark list option that does not show the notes
- #1969 – Use a selected word to pull up a definition from a dictionary module
You can also see list of tickets in Github, labeled with Matching Contribution label.
In addition to this, the user is generously offering a partial sponsorship for general development work. Specifically, for the next 20 hours of booked general development, he is willing to contribute 1/6th of the cost, effectively reducing the hourly rate from 60€/hour to 50€/hour for other sponsors. More details and participation can be found here.
If you’re interested in supporting any of these features, you can directly purchase half of the required development time through this specific sponsorship link and mention the specific feature in the purchase comments. The matching sponsor will cover the other half. Once the payments are confirmed, the sponsored issues will be marked accordingly on GitHub.
This is a fantastic opportunity to leverage community resources and expedite important enhancements for AndBible.
