310+ ### Desktop support
311+
312+ This app is intended for use on mobile platforms, specifically
313+ Android and iOS.
314+
315+ On desktop platforms, we support running the app for development
316+ but not for general use. In particular this means:
317+
318+ * The layout and UI are designed for mobile. We don't spend time
319+ on adapting the app to desktop UI features or paradigms.
320+
321+ * External platform integrations (like opening a link,
322+ taking a photo, etc.) are built only for Android and iOS.
323+ We don't spend time making them work on other platforms.
324+
325+ * On the other hand the app runs, and core functionality works,
326+ on at least Linux and macOS. Currently no regular contributor
327+ uses it on Windows, but we accept fixes to keep it running there too.
328+
329+ The reason we support desktop platforms at all is that
330+ for development it's sometimes useful to run the app on desktop.
331+ For example, this makes it easy to resize the window arbitrarily,
332+ which can be helpful for testing layout behavior.
