I'd like a game of solitaire
So, anyone working on a native solitaire game? On the N900, I found solitaire quite useful for forcing myself awake in the morning. Would be nice to also have that possibility on the Jolla, without fighting with Dalvik.
We have moved to a new Sailfish OS Forum. Please start new discussions there.

Gnome Aisleriot has a number of good quality solitaire games written in Schema and the program itself written in C with GObject and GTK+. It includes Klondike (with a few variations), Spider and Freecell and almost 80 other games.
If it could be ported (or rewritten) in C++ and QML (Qt) with mobile friendly GUI I think it would be a success. I think that regular Qt would work better than Silica and that would make it possible to port it to Android too (larger user base but Sailfish first of course).
I could take part of in that effort but I know I couldn't do it alone. I know my way with C++, QML and Git. But be aware that it would be a lot of work to do.

Klondike solitaire (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klondike_solitaire) or peg solitaire (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peg_solitaire) or something else (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_patience_games)?

Just imagine showing people that demo mode. Maybe the huge number of games in pySol could be divided into a family of apps? One deck games, two deck games, mahjongg, etc.
