Same as T395510: Mobile web reference previews for subrefs (see there for more details), but for the iOS/Android apps.
First step is to manually test both apps with the new details syntax. How do they behave? Document all findings here in this ticket.
- iOS - see findings below (tested by Lina)
- Android - see findings below (tested by Adam)
The equivalent of the tasks below is currently not working on the apps :
| Task equivalent | current state on iOS | current state on Android |
| * Missing detail number + indentation T378568: Parsoid: Render sub-refs in the references section like in legacy parser | ||
| * Preview does not show main + details T395510: Mobile web reference previews for subrefs | ||
Dev notes:
- From Dmitry Brant
- Both iOS and Android apps receive their article content from PCS (Page Content Service), so any fixes and updates would need to be made in that codebase, and will be automatically received by apps.
- Unfortunately, PCS contains a lot of very legacy code, and at first glance it looks like PCS does some rearranging of reference elements, in a way that is indeed incompatible with sub-referencing. Here is the file within PCS where this logic happens. If you could dig in and make PCS work with sub-referencing, that would be very welcome
- Required before we can test anything: T395871: Enable sub-referencing on test wiki
- iOS and Android are two different codebases:
