Wikipedia iPhone app

From MediaWiki.org

Need to update this a bit... :D

[edit] Source

More information and build instructions on Github

• Custom Rhodes fork --- http://github.com/wikimedia/rhodes/tree
• Application --- http://github.com/wikimedia/wikipedia-rhodes/tree

[edit] Features hopefully going in right quick

• Language selection
• Update the footer text & link back to full site

[edit] Features to consider adding for future

• Default to phone's UI language if available
• Bookmarking
• Email-page-to-a-friend
• Search suggestions while you type
  • (Retry) Search other languages
• Table of contents for faster in-article navigation
• Better section folding
  • Fold more aggressively on moderately long pages
  • Allow fetching the subsection contents later, so very long pages can be loaded up faster initially.
• Video/audio playback?
  • cf Wiki Tap
  • probably needs either a native vorbis/theora player (!) or transcoding
• Location-based search
  • May be easier to push this back until we have geo searching in the official API
• Pre-seed app with offline articles (possibly in openZim format)
• Queue pages to read later
• Shake to retrieve a random Wikipedia article
• Landscape/potrait re-orientation
