**Data flow:** Compose UI &rarr; ViewModel &rarr; Repository &rarr; Room (local) + Retrofit (remote). Posts are persisted to Room first, then queued for upload via WorkManager.
**Navigation:** Bottom bar with four tabs — Home (Feed), Newsletter, Stats, and Settings. Composer, Detail, Pages, Members, and Tags screens slide in as overlays.
## Getting started
### Prerequisites
- Android Studio Hedgehog (2023.1.1) or later
