Build software better, together
github.com
GitHub is where people build software. More than 150 million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over 420 million projects.

I wonder if this has something to do with the EuroOffice drama. It’s too bad, this was the only decent FOSS office app for Android.

Edit: Some commenters say this may not have been fully FOSS despite some of the code being published.

    Excuse me?? I’m sorry, but OnlyOffice is not FOSS. Hell, it’s not even fully OSS in the first place, how are you calling it FOSS??

      i had no idea. i assumed since the source code appeared to be on github (along with releases), it was.

      I don’t see a fork on their account. The account description does say they’re working on a mobile app though, so hopefully it’s just private for now.

    What office suite is ideal for Linux users then? Only office has been acting shady. Libreoffice, for the love of god I cannot use with that UI. If they improve the UI, I will switch to it in an instant. Now euroffice seems to have some promise but we will need to see.

      As a daily LibreOffice user, I agree with you on the UI. I can’t even keep track of how many different settings menus there are and each of them are a labyrinth unto themselves. What ended up saving my sanity was setting the UI to single toolbar and purging every unnecessary button in Calc and Writer. Might be unpopular, but I then arranged the remaining toolbar features the way they do in Google Docs. For Impress, I set it to the tabbed ribbon-esque interface.

    I’ve been a happy OnlyOffice user for a while now.

    However, if the people behind are crap, I wouldn’t mind moving to something else.

    I’d only want it to work easily with kDrive (cloud storage) and also be able to do light work on my iPhone.

    Do you know if this could be done with one of its alternatives?
