Yes, Qt5 is big and complicated because it's very flexible.

I'll be reading.

Thanks by your feedback.

Hello,

I am thinking to port telegram-desktop from FreeBSD to OpenBSD. But I am not
sure if it will be accepted by the security policy.

As I always start the practical thing before to read the theory, because I
always think that I don't know if I am able to do, and that makes me to read
on the road, I ask first if somebody experienced is wondering to do this
work also. Because I see a project for a long time and this is my first
port. Nothing else to say, just hoping it to be well accepted as
web.telegram.org is working fine on Firefox but it is not complete and
flexible.

Have a nice day,

thanks by reading.



I don't see why not. For some reason I assumed this was an Electron app (tricky
to port, I don't think anybody has got any to work in ports) but actually it's
Qt5, they aren't always the easiest of things to port but I don't see any big
obstacles.

Hello,

I am thinking to port telegram-desktop from FreeBSD to OpenBSD. But I am 
not sure if it will be accepted by the security policy.
