I am an Android user so it's definitely going to be Jerboa for me.

I'm hoping to improve my Jetpack Compose skills so I can contribute more to its development as well :)

Yeah this is what I've been doing, have made a few simple PRs already to enhance the themes a bit! Never worked with Jetpack Compose before, but Google sure does the trick.

Make sure you grab the latest beta of Android Studio (not the default stable one it suggests), and connect your Github account once it's installed. The emulator works really well for testing, no phone needed. Makes it super quick to get up and running and start submitting fixes.

I'm definitely more accustomed to running the beta branch of Studio (especially now, as it contains the New UI from IntelliJ which I got used to a bit ago haha)!

I'm doing the same thing. I haven't written kotlin or jetpack compose code before, but I was able to fix a minor bug that affected pre-login. Hopefully I'll be able to find ways to contribute more.
