Many foldable devices will be released this summer. Surface Duo and Neo, new Samsung, Huawei and Motorola devices are on the way. Is there any plan for foldable devices?
Flarum on Folding Devices
tolgaaaltas what would happen or not happen if we do nothing ?
Are there any particular features websites can use ?

Maybe team can improve Flarum's design like this for foldable devices.
tolgaaaltas I believe this would require some new web API. I haven't heard of anything yet.
A quick search returned a proposal by Microsoft w3c/csswg-drafts4736 . Nothing seems approved yet, and even if something passes it will likely be a few years until something usable lands in major browsers.
Now if you're talking about a Flarum mobile application, this might be something doable with today's technology https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/foldables. I'm pretty sure it would only work with native apps any nothing webview-based though.

Why consider only mobile devices ? The same experience is possible with dual monitors as well.
clarkwinkelmann Idk how they are doing but Discourse working on this.
meetdilip Why consider only mobile devices ? The same experience is possible with dual monitors as well.
It's not the same thing. Dual monitor desktop devices are optional but foldable devices (Neo: Laptop, Duo: Phone) are finished product.
You will find more dual monitor setups than Duo and Neo. 
meetdilip Because they are not released yet. Bruh.

If foldable phones really do take off in the future and actually become cheap enough that anyone can afford it I can see reason to invest in making it work on those devices in a special(ish) kind of way. Right now though I really question a couple of things:
A: Are foldable phones really here to stay? Or are they just another fad? Right now they just seem like a fad all the manufactures are jumping on.
B: Current foldable phones generally either fold out into a really small tablet or from a flip phone to a regular size smart phone, so with the screens on either side being small does it really makes sense to make a "special" experience for just those phones? Especially since Flarum has a great experience on tablets and regular size phones right now.
C: For the large foldable devices (like the surface neo/duo) how many users are actually going to want Flarum on both screens, personally if I had two screens I would be multi-tasking, not using both to use a single application.
Until foldable devices actually have a decent size market share (in my opinion at least 5% or more) it makes no sense to spend time, energy and resources on developing special experiences for those devices, especially if those experiences aren't actually going to be used by people.
