Hi @nasrin ,

The switch from Kivy to Qt5 is entirely because of packaging and distribution issues. It turns out, it's nearly impossible to generate any sort of standard package for Linux with Kivy being used, because its dependencies are quite mangled. (Took about a year of packaging attempts to discover that!)

You're absolutely welcome to get involved, even with the minimal experience. There are both small and large tasks, simple and complex, so you can take your pick. :)
