No matter what cmd I open on my Android, TLDR returns always a blank page (with a button smaller than its description). I just downloaded your app and tabbed on cmd keywords, what else should do users to consult man pages ?

OS: Android 11
TLDR v: 8f6f43

Doesn't this belong https://github.com/Techno-Disaster/tldr-flutter, a tldr client for Android?

alright, no wonder there is some confusion if the Android app is being curated by other people. Btw, their project seem abandoned (just checked moments ago).

Therefore, let me ask another question,
why don't you include the Android version as well, since a mobile version is much more comfortable because all times available and more memorable to consult, when you don't have access to a computer ? I mean, reading curated notes is great. On desktop we have already snippets, autosuggestion, autocorrection and similar.

I'm not this project's maintainer and I've been contributing here for literally 2 days, so I don't know much thing about the project ecosystem. But normally open source is about someone use your own free (or hopefully paid) time to implement something nice. And to keep maintaining. So I believe the question is who has time, energy and dev skill to implement/maintain such app. I agree with you that it is useful for mobile devices.

We also have a website https://tldr.inbrowser.app which you can use on mobile. The issue you are describing indeed belongs to the Android app specific repository. This GitHub repository only maintains the pages. If you experience issues with a specific client, please raise an issue at the specific client. If for now the mentioned website is okay, we will close this issue on our side.

A website is an alternative, this even saves space on phone.

However, I hoped to install a simple viewer app which downloads locally and updates examples whenever there's fresh content.. this was my idea 😐.

Maintaining a simple viewer is like to use some templates, for developers who are used to deal with mobile development.

https://tldr.inbrowser.app/ by default supports caching pages so you can still view the pages offline, additionally, you can install it as a PWA and access it directly from your app screen.
