# Installation

## Method 1: Play Store
[Click Here to Download from Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sahej.snow)

## Method 2: Build from Source

### Prerequisites
You need to have the following installed before proceeding:
- Git ([Install Instructions](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git))
- Flutter ([Install Instructions](https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install))

Please ensure that git and flutter are properly setup and working on your machine before proceeding.

### Instructions
Clone this repository recusrsively because there are some submodule dependencies. You can do that by typing the following in your terminal (on Linux, macOS), or in Powershell (on Windows):
```bash
git clone --recursive https://www.github.com/sahej-dev/snow.git
```
> ⚠️ Warning: Do NOT forget to include the `--recursive` flag, because without it you would not have all the dependencies required by Snow. This is because some dependencies are git submodules.

Then change the working directory to the newly created `snow` directory by typing:
```bash
cd snow
```
Now you can build the apk by typing
```bash
flutter build apk --release
```

You can safely ignore the big wall of red text as long as it says "Running Gradle task 'assembleRelease'...". Finally it should say "<span style="color:#43C731">✓  Built build/app/outputs/flutter-apk/app-release.apk (46.0MB)</span>".

Navigate to the above mentioned directory using your file explorer, and transfer `app-release.apk` to your Android device. If you are unable to locate `app-release.apk` then type the following in your terminal after it is done with the previous step:
```bash
cp ./build/app/outputs/flutter-apk/app-release.apk ~/Desktop
```
Now you should be able to find the `app-release.apk` on your desktop.

# Support

# Background
Snow was originally a Discord bot that me and a friend made during online university in 2020, which supported only two platforms: CodeChef and Codeforces. Later it evolved into a, now discontinued, mobile app (now called [Snow Classic](https://github.com/sahej-dev/Snow/tree/classic)). Snow Classic had a static and hardcoded light theme, used provider (in a very bad way) to manage state, and notifications did not work on my OnePlus device but worked flawlessly on a friend's Samsung. Being very new to app development at the time, Snow Classic of course turned out to have very bad architecture (if it had one at all). It worked but changing, adding anything was a pain. So I began a rewrite of the app, and this is what we have.
