There’s a ton of issues with the UI I want to address and there’s a number of things I want to experiment such as how communities are subscribed to, so I started writing a new UI in SvelteKit. I also have Capacitor setup which would allow this to triple as a native iOS and Android application.
Would love some help if anyone is interested.

Preview so far though much yet still has to be done
I had been also working on something like this for a couple days. also with sveltekit even!
it’s not public yet as I really don’t have anything too much to show for, but it’s slowly coming together
also it’s still a question whether upstream Lemmy will loosen their cors restrictions to allow for 3rd party web UIs. the more the merrier imo
I love SvelteKit. I am a backend dev myself, but this framework made me really get into UI development, just so much easier.
What do you mean by the cors restrictions? I am hosting the front end on the same domain as my backend (just like the lemmy UI) so there shouldn’t be any issues there.
I’m thinking of external clients, like what pinafore was for mastodon.
in my case I’m planning on making a hacky “hybrid” that can be built both as a server and as a completely static SPA, where cors would be an issue.
At this point I might as well release it onto the wild. No clue If I’ll work on it until there is a definitive answer to the CORS question: https://github.com/ShittyKopper/lemmik
