Summary
A new, user friendly, Web app for interacting Android devices is under development.
Follow the progress at https://tangoapp.dev/
Background
As I have said many times before, the demo (https://tango-adb.github.io/old-demo/, source code at https://github.com/tango-adb/old-demo) is only a demo. It's used in my development to test new features, and helps developers to learn how to integrate Tango library into their own projects.
However, more and more features were added over the time per user requests. I can still use it in development, but other people are having difficulties understanding such a complex project. On the other hand, the user experience isn't satisfying neither.
As a result, I decided to create a new Web app for Tango, hiding all the technical details, and exposing more features the users need, even if they don't fit Tango's original project goals.
(Not) Open Source
Another important thing about the new app is that it will be close-sourced. Mainly due to three reasons:
Commercialize
Although the new app will be close-sourced, there is no plan to commercialize it in near future. I don't want to put ADs in it to ruin the beautiful design, nor charge for features that are easily replicable. The app is freely hosted on Vercel, the only cost is the domain name (about 10 USD per year) and my time. If you want, you can donate (https://opencollective.com/ya-webadb) to support this project.
Features
To name some:
Try it now
The new app is currently hosted at https://tangoapp.dev/
Contributions
To separate issues between Tango library and the new Tango app, you can post feature requests and bug reports for the new app to the new repository:
https://github.com/tango-adb/feedback/issues
This repository's issue tracker will be reserved only for the library itself. In both cases, make sure to select the right template for your issue and provide as much information as you can.
Future of this repository
The core library will continue to be updated. Feature requests and bug reports will be handled, and some features in the new app will be upsteamed into the core library.
The existing demo will continue to be available, but not updated. The plan is to create a new demo based on Storyboard.js (https://storybook.js.org/) to better showcase each feature.
The domain name https://tangoapp.dev has been switched to the new app.
The repository will be moved to the new organization at some point. This will cause the old url https://yume-chan.github.io/ya-webadb/ to stop working.
Finalize
Again, thanks to all people contributing to this project by posting bug reports and feature requests, sending code fixes, spreading it online, and donating!
