Thanks a lot for the replies and help :) To be honest, I was pretty tired yesterday and after 2 hours of downloading and installing components, my brain was not 100%
It would still be great if there was a clear path to "build for ARM device on Linux" or so without too many mixed win/linux instructions. Wishlist: $ sudo apt-get install crosswalk-sdk or $ sudo npm install -g crosswalk-sdk ... and if we can get rid of the many huge external deps it would help a lot (Java from Oracle and the full official Android SDK from Google) br Lars On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 9:59 AM, Balestrieri, Francesco < [email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for trying Crosswalk and for the feedback, Lars! > > > > Just for the sake of keeping the discussion on the right issues, I wanted > to repeat here what we discussed on IRC: the application you first created > with the XDK was built for the default Android Webview, not Crosswalk.
