Linus Rath d135bb2449 docs: describe device sync as it was built #34
The design in f666699 was written before the code, and building it
changed a number of details, several of them after runs against the
real providers on the emulators. The doc now says what the code does:

- a sync run's steps in the order they run, the stale list, the
  reconcile cursor, the owner check, the time margins, and accounts that
  are left out when they refuse to list their collections;
- uploads in phases across accounts, the `ifInState` catch-up, account
  refusals, series splits and copied events, creates adopting only in
  their target collection, and poison markers;
- the contacts and calendar mappings as built (membership rows, text
  limits, postal and relation rules, read-only rows and calendars,
  exceptions, reminders under the old owner), and the columns the
  providers refuse to return;
- the native module's scoping, the app's store, lifecycle and triggers,
  and the failure matrix;
- decisions and limitations, with the questions still open.

Checked: every statement against the code of this branch.

Bulwark Webmail

Bulwark Mobile

Beta - work in progress. Many features are unfinished or rough. Expect bugs, missing functionality, and breaking changes between releases. Do not rely on this for primary email yet.

React Native (Expo SDK 54) client for Bulwark Webmail - a JMAP-based mail, calendar, and contacts app.

What works today

  • Sign in to any JMAP server (e.g. Stalwart)
  • Multiple accounts
  • Email list, threads, compose
  • Calendar (basic)
  • Contacts (basic)
  • Push notifications via the Bulwark relay - FCM by default, or UnifiedPush (e.g. ntfy) for devices without Google Play services
  • In-app sideload updates from GitHub Releases

What's missing or rough

  • iOS builds, but push notifications and client certificates are Android-only so far
  • S/MIME, plugins, themes - UI stubs only (filters & rules, the vacation responder and file storage are real implementations)
  • Calendar editing is partial; contacts editing is basic
  • No Play Store distribution yet (sideload APK from Releases); iOS ships via TestFlight

Run locally

npm install
npx expo start

Then press a for Android, i for iOS, or scan the QR with Expo Go.

For release APK builds and signing see docs/android-release.md. For iOS builds and TestFlight distribution see docs/ios-release.md.
