[meta] Release on F-Droid?
Would be very nice, in addition to a Play Store release, to release the app on F-Droid, since it's open source. Here is their FAQ with a lot of informations about how F-Droid actually works for developers.
@locness3 That sounds like an awesome idea! I'll look into it more as we get closer to release.
@locness3 The FAQ page refers to the fact that the App must not be built with Oracle JDK. Isn't that what Itchy uses?
I don't see any mention of Oracle in the page I linked? I have no idea and I hate not knowing this. Also, I just want to make sure you have read this part :
Special note on Cordova/Phonegap/HTML-Apps: We cannot build cordova apps directly, but recent version allows you to export the platform-specific code that can be build standalone using “gradle”. So for now we require this code to be present and up-to-date in the source repository.
It was actually on a different page - see below.

Not sure about this either, or how it will work since we're using Capacitor instead of Cordova.

emphasis mine:
Special note on Cordova/Phonegap/HTML-Apps
I believe this applies to any app that requires building HTML content with npm and stuff, because this is not something that can be done by the standard android development tools, i.e. just by clicking the run button in android studio
