How to contribute

There is a lot of packages descriptions to improve. Some can be slightly incorrect and some are nearly nonexistent. You know what you have to do! :)

You can also add new packages :

1. All non documented packages can be displayed by selecting the unlisted filter.

2. Try to document each new package and create a pull request or create an issue.

The UAD list is a JSON list that can be found here.

A package is defined like this:

{
    "id": "com.google.mainline.telemetry",
    "list": "Google",
    "description": "First line of the a description\nThis is a new line",
    "dependencies": null,
    "neededBy": null,
    "labels": null,
    "removal": "Unsafe"
},

dependencies, neededBy and labels are fields which will most likely change in the near future (for the v0.6 or v0.7).

• list: can be Google, Misc (miscellaneous), Oem (manufacturer), Aosp, Pending, Carrier (isp).
• removal: can be Recommended, Advanced, Expert, Unsafe (see more)

Decompile an APK

• Apktool
• Jadx (what I use)
• Bytecode Viewer

Useful apps

SD Maid Apps checker feature can be useful to find info about the packages.

Stanley app or Apps_packages_info on F-droid are also handy.

Logcat Reader to easily access device logs

Useful online services

• Pithus

Build

You need to install the Rust toolchain and the mold linker

cargo build --release

The default renderer is wgpu, a modern renderer using Vulkan. If you want OpenGL (useful for older computer) you need to add the glow feature (more info).

cargo build --features glow --release
