Building Notes and Instructions
Building is supported on macOS, Linux, and Windows using the custom NDK: FrankeNDK.
Set configurations in config.prop. A sample file config.prop.sample is provided as an example.
Run build.py with argument -h to see the built-in help message. The -h option also works for each supported actions, e.g. ./build.py binary -h
By default, build.py build binaries and Magisk Manager in debug mode. If you want to build Magisk Manager in release mode (via the -r, --release flag), you need a Java Keystore file release-key.jks (only JKS format is supported) to sign APKs and zips.
