Phase A: NewPipeExtractor + OkHttp Downloader wired in. Search bar +
LazyColumn results. Tap = navigate to detail.
Phase B: VideoDetail screen — StreamInfo metadata + Return YouTube
Dislike chips + description.
Phase C: Media3 ExoPlayer in Compose. Resolves StreamInfo to best
playable: DASH MPD → HLS → combined progressive → merged
videoOnly+audio.
Phase D: SponsorBlock SHA-256 prefix lookup. 250ms position-poll loop
inside PlayerScreen — exoPlayer.seekTo(segment.end) when entering
a sponsor segment. Toast on skip.
Phase E: Verified live on Android 14 emulator. linus tech tips search
returns real results with thumbnails; tapped result opens detail;
hit Play → video plays through ExoPlayer.
Architecture: everything in :strawApp for now (not pushed into :shared
yet — KMP refactor is day-3). Pure-state nav (sealed Screen + stack,
no nav library).
Known polish gaps (day-3): RYD chips render empty on some videos,
description has raw HTML (markdown render needed), no Koin DI yet,
no persistence.
GPL-3.0-or-later per upstream NewPipe.
Initial Sulkta fork of NewPipe with a new :strawApp module that ships a
clean Compose-based Android APK at applicationId com.sulkta.straw.
What's here:
- :strawApp — thin Android application shell, MaterialTheme + StrawHome
Composable. Lives alongside legacy :app so we don't break upstream.
- buildSrc — STRAW_APPLICATION_ID/VERSION constants alongside the existing
NEWPIPE_APPLICATION_ID_OLD/NEW.
- docs/sulkta — RECON.md (NewPipe codebase breakdown) + DECISIONS.md
(stack + scope decisions).
NewPipe's :shared KMP scaffold is at 892 LOC and renders nothing; this
fork picks up there and races ahead. Day-1 ships a hello APK; day-2 wires
NewPipeExtractor + Media3 player + SponsorBlock + Return YouTube Dislike.
GPL-3.0-or-later per upstream.
