To publish a Flutter Android app to F-Droid, you need to set up reproducible builds, create F-Droid metadata, and submit a merge request to fdroiddata. This Skill automates that entire process, including ABI split configurations and local validation.

Reproducible builds ensure your Flutter Android app can be built consistently from source, allowing F-Droid to verify releases. Setting up reproducible builds is a core requirement for app inclusion and is handled automatically by the publication process.

Yes, you need a fork of the fdroiddata repository to submit your Flutter app metadata. The process involves creating the metadata locally, validating it, and then submitting a merge request from your fork to the main fdroiddata repository.

Yes, you can automate F-Droid metadata creation for an existing Flutter app. The process generates versioning, source code, and build information metadata, while also implementing ABI split configurations for your Android builds.

You validate F-Droid metadata locally by running automated checks before submission. The publication process performs local validation on your generated metadata to ensure it meets F-Droid requirements before creating the merge request to fdroiddata.
