The 2019 Phoniebox Calendar is out!

The 2019 Phoniebox Calendar Celebrating all the great designs of 2018, I put together a calendar for 2019. The PDF is quite big (>50MB) and will print well on A2 paper size, but it should also look good on larger poster sizes. Thanks to all of the contributors, designers and makers. Have a good start into 2019 and keep up the good work!

  • Documentation moved to the wiki The GitHub wiki for Phoniebox is active. And in the making. Not sure if this is the best way to go, but please try to add content in the wiki regarding special hardware, software tweaks and the like.
  • Podcasts! More for myself than anybody else, I guess, I added the podcast feature for Phoniebox (2018-05-09)
  • Phoniebox podcasts ... sound like a big feature but all it is: if you have a folder with MP3 files on your Phoniebox, there is a new link with an RSS icon in the web app which allows to subscribe to this folder like a podcast in your mobile app. Why is this useful? Before I go travelling with my kid, I subscribe and locally download files to my phone for the journey. (2018-12-25)
  • Bleeding edge: develop branch The maintenance with a growing contributor team (kudos!) got complicated. I introduced the branch develop which is where all new stuff is happening before merged to master. Read the CONTRIBUTING.md file for more infos on how to contribute code. (2018-08-30)
