Qira - Quran App

Qira is a Quran reading and listening app designed around a single principle: get out of the way of the content. The home screen is almost entirely empty, with a vertical snap carousel of all 114 chapters, each card showing the surah name in a custom Arabic calligraphy font, metadata pill badges, and an icon tray for favorites, notes, tafsir, and audio. Audio playback is accompanied by a canvas-drawn gradient progress ring. Cards flip with a 3D perspective animation to reveal the chapter introduction. The color system is deliberately restrained, with a single green accent and carefully stepped grays for both light and dark mode. Every icon comes from the Solar BoldDuotone set for visual consistency. Animations run on the UI thread via Reanimated, keeping gesture response immediate and physical.
