B2G SDK (?)

Current State ( April 16, 2012 )

Currently web developers who want to hack on Gaia either with hardware or using the desktop client are required to build Gecko ( and in the case of hardware, Gonk ) using a fairly elaborate set of steps:

Building the B2G desktop app

  • Steps to hack on Gaia: [1]
  • Related community member blog post: [2]
  • related B2G bug to get nightly B2G/Gaia builds [3]

Building and flashing B2G to compatible hardware

  • wiki:
    • Build environment: [4]
    • Galaxy SII build procedure: [5]
  • state of heavy flux, B2G is being ported to ICS right now
  • 2 currently compatible phones: Samsung GSII & Nexus S
  • lengthy, error-prone build process
  • legal restrictions on redistribution of the resulting builds
