Beam for Reddit
An open source Reddit client for iOS.
## Introduction
Hi, we're [Powermobile Team](https://powermobile.org/). In 2014, we started working on a Reddit client called Beam. In the years that followed, we created a client that lets its users enjoy all of Reddit's content in a unique and beautiful package. After four years of development, we've decided to open source Beam and truly hand it over to its users. We’ll still continue to work on Beam and release high-quality updates.
## Features
Beam brings the best features of Reddit to your iPhone and iPad.
- Multireddits
- Content filters
- In-app messaging
- Message notifications
- Post marking
- Spoiler protection
- 3D Touch
It also offered unlockable packs in the past, now available by default:
- Mediaview
- Night Mode
- Auto Playing GIFs
- Thumbnail Mode
- Metadata Control
- Multiple Accounts
- Passcode Lock
- Touch ID Unlock
- Privacy Mode

All pull requests will be reviewed by someone of the Powermobile team.
## Requirements
In order to compile Beam you will need to meet the following requirements:
```
- A Mac with Xcode 8.1 or later
- Git command line tools or a git source control client like Tower.
```
## Getting started
### Submodules
Beam uses submodules for dependencies, so when cloning Beam, make sure to include recursive submodules.
If any problems occur trying to checkout these submodules, use the following terminal command to make sure are submodules are ready:
```git submodule update --init --recursive```
### Steps to compile
To compile Beam, please follow these steps:
1. Clone the repository including submodules
2. Edit `SampleConfig.swift` with the required values and rename it to `Config.swift`
3. Open `beam.xcodeproj` in Xcode
4. Run the app
### General structure of the app
When opening the project in Xcode you will see several targets. The two most important targets are `beam` and `Snoo`.
- `beam` This is the app that you see on your phone and in the App Store.
- `Snoo` is the framework built by us that handles the core data objects and communication with the Reddit API. Beam calls snoo to get the data.
