+ ### Desktop support
311
+
312
+ This app is intended for use on mobile platforms, specifically
313
+ Android and iOS.
314
+
315
+ On desktop platforms, we support running the app for development
316
+ but not for general use. In particular this means:
317
+
318
+ * The layout and UI are designed for mobile. We don't spend time
319
+ on adapting the app to desktop UI features or paradigms.
320
+
321
+ * External platform integrations (like opening a link,
322
+ taking a photo, etc.) are built only for Android and iOS.
323
+ We don't spend time making them work on other platforms.
324
+
325
+ * On the other hand the app runs, and core functionality works,
326
+ on at least Linux and macOS. Currently no regular contributor
327
+ uses it on Windows, but we accept fixes to keep it running there too.
328
+
329
+ The reason we support desktop platforms at all is that
330
+ for development it's sometimes useful to run the app on desktop.
331
+ For example, this makes it easy to resize the window arbitrarily,
332
+ which can be helpful for testing layout behavior.
