We use SwiftLint to ensure code is spaced and formatted the same way and follows the same general conventions. After that you should be able to build and run the project.

I love Spotify and Apple, and I hope that Pocket Casts can do for podcast clients what Firefox in the early days and Chromium now does for browsers - push the state of the art, be manically focused on user control, and grow a more decentralized and open web. It’s also unusual to be able to peek under the hood of a consumer mobile app that is this widely used and see how it works.Īudio publishing and consumption is a beautiful complement to the web publishing that WordPress is already so good at, and that Automattic tries to nurture an ecosystem around. If your code gets merged into core, it’ll go out to users listening to literally millions of hours of podcasts a week. You can see all the code behind the iOS app and the Android app, and modify it, make it your own, suggest a change, fix a bug, add a feature, fork it and make your own client, anything! The team has been working really hard to make those clients totally open source and available to the world, and it’s now happened.

Automattic acquired Pocket Casts last July, and since we’ve been tapping away trying to make the best podcast client for people who love listening to podcasts.
