MGLApps
Mobile GNU/Linux Apps is a list of 100+ (potential) applications for usage on mobile devices running GNU/Linux, having small(er) screens and touch input (e.g. smartphones, tablets, convertibles).
- You can help to improve the information in that list
- If you're looking for an app to get involved with, have a look there and help to get it on the Librem 5
- If you're working on your own app, consider adding it to that list
