**This project is undergoing a full rewrite**. The latest snapshot of the old project is available at https://github.com/AllanWang/Frost-for-Facebook/tree/legacy.
While a rewrite isn't necessary to keep the project going, I wanted to take some time to learn new things, and also to support some big features:
* Views to compose. This will make things a lot more structured, and will simplify dynamic colors/themes, which I've included in my projects well before Material You.
* WebView to GeckoView. This will add support for web extensions, and provide more functionality. Admittedly, this has been a huge pain to learn, and there are things that are far easier with webviews, but I think I'm at a point where I've answered my main questions.
* Web extensions allows for actual ad blocks, and theme updates without pushing new apks
* I intend on adding notification support for friend requests, though that could have been done with the old build
The direction I'm taking Frost v4.0.0 is to simplify a lot of things, and to leverage other extensions/libraries where possible. GeckoView also makes it easier to support multi account, in case I want to extend this beyond Facebook at some point in the future.
**This project is not actively maintained**. I'm occassionally updating the code to test things out, but the latest 'usable' snapshot of the old project is available at https://github.com/AllanWang/Frost-for-Facebook/tree/legacy. Until this is updated, the dev branch is not usable.
