What is this AI slop image at the top of the article? I'm not wasting my time reading this!
The article itself seems written by AI? Maybe I'm missing something when reading, but when I packaged a Preact application and sent it to F-Droid, I needed to code a few hundred lines of Java and Gradle boilerplate: https://codeberg.org/nykula/sapfir/src/commit/fce6fcd34e/android - the article doesn't seem to mention many necessary steps in building a web-based hello world for Android? The choice of web-based technology (React) and F-Droid as a distribution channel is also a very weird combination in the context of postmarketOS, which targets many legacy, slow devices and thus its FAQ recommends using native Linux alternatives to Android and web apps whenever possible.
I wouldn't be at all surprised that an article with AI slop images is also AI slop text.
