# Recipes to build an android/apk from an HTag app
This is the **build apk method** for an [HTag app](https://github.com/manatlan/htag) (using htag >= 0.90.0)
Don't be afraid, it's really simple (thanks to buildozer docker system !!)
**Note** :
- Since htag>=0.90, this recipe has changed (no more github action), and no more `AndroidApp`'htag special runner ! **htag** is the only dependancy !!!
- The previous mechanim used the 'sdl2' bootstrap with kivy (so kivy was needed). Now it uses the 'webview' bootstrap (no more kivy needed!), and it's a lot more natural (apk is smaller, speedier, simpler and 'back' button is supported OOTB)
## Recipe :
You should use [make.py](make.md), which is a script/commandline to help you in the build/install/debug process (using the buildozer tool).
First of all, ensure that theses tools are installed on your computer :
**python3**, **docker**, **git**, **adb** & **pidcat** (depending on your distribution, it's just `sudo apt-get install python3 docker git adb pidcat`)
You'll have to know basics adb commmands (`adb connect`, `adb devices`, ...)
Open a console and do :
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/manatlan/htagapk.git
$ cd htagapk
```
Give execution permission to `make.py`
```bash
$ chmod +x ./make.py
```
See if it works ;-)
```bash
$ ./make.py
```
It will show you that you have 2 project/folders (app & app2)
- "app" is an android smartphone app
- "app2" is an android tv app
(More to come)
So you'll have to define which one you want to test (in the folowing, we will take 'app" )
Build the apk
```bash
$ ./make.py app build
```
Plug your device, and ensure that it's connected (using `adb` tool)
```bash
$ adb devices
```
(no trouble to connect a wifi android device, it works the same (if the device accept incoming connexion))
You can install the apk, and run it, using :
```bash
$ ./make.py app install
```
If you want to see the live log
```bash
$ ./make.py app debug
```
## IRL others htag (<0.90) apps repo
Deprecated, coz using the old way, with htag < 0.90 !!!
- [TriApp](https://github.com/manatlan/TriApp): a freely android clone of TriCount **(htag < 0.90)**
- [MAAR](https://github.com/manatlan/maar) : a POC of a music player for android autoradio **(htag < 0.90)**
