Post Description

Hi everyone! I’d like to share my first Android app, a client for Hacker News. I have been a dev for 8 years but I am just starting my journey into making mobile apps. Since this is my first app, I’m sure there’s plenty of room for improvement, so I’d really appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or ideas.
