Setup & Contributing
In order to load the project, run:
git clone https://github.com/RomanScott/weMessage.git
git submodule init
git submodule update
Then, open the android folder inside Android Studio (from there it will load the other modules).
The weMessage source code is separated into four modules. Compilation instructions for the Android app and weServer are included in the README files of their perspective module folders.
If you have any ideas, language translations, design or user interface changes, code cleaning or refactoring, or improvements you would like to make, please feel free to contribute by submitting a pull request! Any help is welcome and greatly appreciated. If you want to help manage this repository or assisting with leading weMessage's development, please send an email to business@wemessageapp.com.

Do note that the source code is largely undocumented. If you wish to add documentation to the source code, feel free to do so!
android is the Android implementation of the weMessage platform. It is the client side interface of the project, and sends messages to and receives messages from the weServer instance. It controls the user interface, stores the messages, and also serves as a standalone SMS and MMS messaging app.
server is the messaging server implementation for the weMessage platform. It processes and forwards iMessages sent from the weMessage app to the Mac host machine, and sends messages received on the Mac to the app. It is the "bridge" between the user's Mac computer and Android device.
commons is a module that contains shared Java code between the weServer and weMessage application.
firebase is a module that contains code for some of the Firebase Cloud Functions, including version checking and sending notifications.
