Cool. Building for Android is a black art, that you're now versed into!
As for signing, given that you don't have the project's secret key,
you won't be able to sign your apk is if we were doing it. So your
android will always see anything you sign as a mismatch with the
official app already installed. So unless you wanna run with your own
fork of the project, there's not much point for you to sign the apk
imho.

That said, if you want to try signing on your own, you need to
generate a keystore (there's docs for it I'm sure), and you need to
have a clients/android/keystore.properties file, with fields like that
in it:
storeFile=perkeep-android.keystore
storePassword=yourPassword
keyAlias=camKey
