Xed-Editor FAQ
Which build flavor includes the extension store?
The community flavor, which is the default, includes the extensions module. The Google Play flavor, with application ID com.rk.axion, excludes the extension store.
How can I build the app without installing the Android SDK?
If you do not have the Android SDK or JDK 21 installed, you can build the project in a Docker container using the command DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build --target export-stage --output ./out . The debug APK is then written to out/community/debug/app-community-debug.apk.
Does the built-in terminal work on every Android device?
Not in the Google Play flavor. That flavour supports arm64-v8a devices only and shows an error dialog on other ABIs. The community flavor downloads the matching rootfs from the network.
