If playstore isn't accessible in your country:

Download the full apk from releases

OR

Build from source

This section is intended for users from countries like China where the Play Store isn't accessible. Otherwise, it is recommended to download the full-featured APK from the Play Store as mentioned above.

Clone this repo, then:

Make sure that git-lfs is installed in your system and accessible via the path. Don't skip this step; the compilers and interpreters are stored in the GitHub large file storage.

1) Build the app as an aab bundle.

Note

To include all compilers, interpreters and extensions in the build, we build it as a standalone aab file, which is bigger compared to the APK downloaded from the Play Store. The Play Store build is smaller because these external dependencies are downloaded on demand when the user requests the particular compiler/interpreter/extension.

cd android && ./gradlew :app:bundleRelease

This will generate the output file in build/app/outputs/bundle/release/app-release.aab

2) Creating APK from AAB

To install aab in your device, it needs to be converted to apk first. For that, download the latest bundletool from the official repo: https://github.com/google/bundletool/releases

Then build the APK:

java -jar path/to/bundletool.jar build-apks --bundle=your_app/build/app/outputs/bundle/release/app-release.aab --output=output.apks --mode=universal

This will generate a file called output.apks in the current directory

3) Then install the apks:

Make sure that you are connected to an emulator or physical device via adb.

java -jar /path/to/bundletool.jar install-apks --apks=output.apks
