`pl-fe` is a social networking client app. It works with any Mastodon API-compatible software, but it's focused on supporting alternative backends, like Pleroma or GoToSocial.

## Goals
|
||||
|
||||
- **Feature-rich**: `pl-fe` includes a wide range of features, such as a WYSIWYG text editor, draft posts, and more.
|
||||
- **Compatibility**: `pl-fe` is compatible with any Mastodon API-compatible software, treating alternative backends as first-class citizens. Chats, emoji reactions, groups, interaction policies? We support them all. Thanks to `pl-api`, which provides a unified interface for interacting with Mastodon API-compatible servers, implementation differences do not affect the user experience.
|
||||
- **Unopinionated**: `pl-fe` doesn't impose any arbitrary limitations on the user. We do not specify a limit of reactions you can use on a single post and try to implement every feature available in the API.
|
||||
- **Stay private**: `pl-fe` includes features which help you maintain online privacy. This includes URL cleaning, which helps you remove unwanted parts of URLs used to mark your online activity.

If you want to use `pl-fe` on your server, follow the installation instructions in the documentation. We offer guides for [Pleroma/Akkoma](https://pl.mkljczk.pl/docs/installing/pleroma/), [Iceshrimp.NET](https://pl.mkljczk.pl/docs/installing/iceshrimp/), [Mitra](https://pl.mkljczk.pl/docs/installing/mitra/), and [standalone installations](https://pl.mkljczk.pl/docs/installing/standalone/).

## Repository
|
||||
|
||||
The repository hosts `pl-fe`, but also libraries related to the project. Currently, this includes:
|
||||
|
||||
- [pl-fe](./packages/pl-fe/) itself — a social networking client app
|
||||
- [pl-api](./packages/pl-api) — a library for interacting with Mastodon API-compatible servers, focused on support for projects extending the official Mastodon API. It is used by `pl-fe`.
|
||||
- [pl-hooks](./packages/pl-hooks) — a library including hooks for integrating with Mastodon API, based on `pl-api` and TanStack Query. It is intended to be used within `pl-fe`. Work in progress.

I named the project after my now-deprecated personal fork of Pleroma, called simply `pl`. They were meant to be recommended together. However, `pl-fe` evolved into something more serious than a little fork. This is a bad and confusing name, but I don't really care about branding.

I will bite people calling `pl-fe` *Polish front-end* or *Polish Soapbox*. And I don't mean sending them the [`Bite` activity](https://ns.mia.jetzt/as/) (which works in pl-fe on supported backends btw).
