Open source is very important at eXo. Platform has been open source since its inception in 2003. We contribute to many OS projects such as Crash, Juzu, Maven, Jenkins, etc. However, the Mobile app was still closed source, despite manyrequests on the forum.

So we listened to these requests: the eXo Mobile apps are now open source.
The source code of the applications running on both iOS and Android is now available on GitHub under a LGPL v3 license. Go ahead and fork our repos if you wish to contribute! We are using the famous Git Flow development workflow, and we will happily review and study any push requests.
As all other eXo projects, eXo Mobile benefits from great software factory tools to build, test, analyze the code and track issues:
