NostrPostr - A nostr client and library for Android

Overview

This repository consists of multiple modules that will eventually be split into their own repositories but as long as the basic libraries and tools are in very active development, juggling multiple repositories isn't worth it yet.

NIP support

Library, Relay and/or App implement the following NIPs. Not all NIPs apply to all parts and some NIPs might not be implemented fully.

Nostr Library in Kotlin - nostrpostrlib

This is the core all other modules build upon. It provides facilities to connect to nostr relays, to send and receive events, to encrypt/decrypt messages, ...

Examples

Here you can find some simple use cases of the library.

Android App

Here are the first efforts of developing a full Nostr Social client for Android.

It's basically abandoned in favor of Nostroid and absent others putting work into it, it will be removed from this repo.

NostrRelay

This is a full relay implementation.

History

As of the date of creation of this repository there was no Android nostr client. There was no nostr library for Android neither. The goal is to provide both with a focus on a clean and generally usable, fully featured library and a client with basic functionality.
