Draft:Porting to a new device/Upstreaming

From postmarketOS Wiki

With the port complete, the final step is to upstream it so that other people can use it. After this step, the device will be selectable in pmbootstrap.

Creating a wiki page for the device

Every supported device needs to have a page on the postmarketOS wiki describing its status and installation/flashing steps.

TODO TODO: Depending on the outcome of wiki#184, we might encourage folks to create new device pages in the Draft namespace.

Upstreaming the device port

Once your port is booting, upstream the device and kernel package to pmaports. With this, your port will become a part of postmarketOS and will be selectable for all users in pmbootstrap init.
