Hi there,

in June 2020 we launched Squirrel News, a curated news service for solutions-focused stories. The technical core of the project is a mobile (hybrid) app for iOS and Android. It’s Open Source, built with Ionic Framework and React Native, and uses Firebase as a backend as well as a Google Sheets integration for uploading content.

A first version of the app is finished and available in the stores. But we still have many ideas how to further improve it. That’s why we are currently looking for new developers to join our team!

We are about 12 people at Squirrel News. Yet, we have only one developer so far, Oliver, who doesn’t have as much time as he’d like to, and would also like to work together with other developers in a team to exchange knowledge and ideas.

Tasks
- You're free to choose what you'd like to work on.

What you get

- new skills in mobile app development
- an inspiring environment full of innovative solutions for global challenges
- good vibrations through collaboration with a team which is driven by intrinsic motivation

You can find more info about the project on our website (squirrel-news.net) and on GitHub: github.com/constructive-news/squirrelnews

If you’re interested or you have further questions, just get in touch!

All the best,

Jonathan
Founder of Squirrel News
