I'm looking to buy an InkPad 4 because the size is just right for both reading books and manga. From the limited amount of research I did I came to the conclusion that Tachiyomi isn't available for these devices out of the box.

How feasible is it to fork Tachiyomi and port it to work with PB devices? I got some experience with both C and C++ since I'm enrolled in a software engineering program at a university. Both languages have extensive documentation so I think this won't be an obstacle.

On the other hand I couldn't really find any documentation for developing apps for PB devices which is a huge problem. I could find bits of information about an SDK on this forum, but the big picture of this whole procedure is still blurry.

Any ideas?
