Codeberg or gitlab as a source forge. Depending on how private you are, you can start a fresh git repository, then your private history won't be exposed.
Otherwise, a license and gitignore file and you're done. Maybe a README if you fancy. And if you want to go overboard, add the apk or request for it to be put on F-Droid
Always a README I would say.
First paragraph tells what the app does im clear terms.
Also, screenshots.
Do I have to sign the apk? I haven't found any clear answer on that.
Yep, signing is mandatory, according to the docs. It's necessary for updating the app. You don't have to use Google, you can self-sign it.
Good. Thank you
@ByteMe Look at publishing it on #fdroid @fdroidorg may be of help.
I'm thinking about fdroid, just later
If you're new to Android development, before you submit to main f-droid repo, try submitting it to izzydroid repo.
Follow their requirements but even if you miss some things, Izzy is very friendly and will guide you through the process. And then once you're done, you'll have a proper setup to submit to the main repo.
Good luck!
Good idea, thanks
Pick a good license: https://choosealicense.com/
If you haven't already, look into how git works.
Then upload the code to a git forge like codeberg or github
Thank you:)
Look in to what license fits your project best.
Did that. Chose gnu gpl3. Thanks
commit AGENT.md so we'd know if it was AI assisted 👀
There is no agent.md 😅
