Airflow on mobile

[thegunner157]

Hi,

Many users are asking questions about viewing Airflow on mobile phones. Is it possible? If so how can we set it up?

Many apps look just fine on mobile phones. Especially the big ones.

Generally Airflow does not have mobile-specific UI. But if you would like to contribute to make our new react UI from Airflow 3 (See https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AIRFLOW/AIP-38+Modern+Web+Application) to be mobile-enabled, it's a good idea to contribute your work (or maybe pay for) development of mobile-friendly version of it. Even just testing and providing fixes so that it is better on a mobile is a good idea. Also maybe developing a mobile app might be a good idea (though there is almost no mobile app development among the maintainers - so it had to be a 3rd-party).

Aiirflow is created by > 3000 contributors - most of them volunteers - and you can become one of them (also there are companies that pay other developers to contribute).

Since you have many users, that implies you make a good business - and contributing back is the fastest way to get what you want, paying someone to contribute is second-best. Other than that - simply somone will have to add mobile friendly version and it might or might not happen, depending if there is somene who will decide to contribute it.
