silent hinge
Bare with me—I'm not a seasoned Swift or jailbreak developer. I’m just trying to get into tweak/jb development, but solid resources online are pretty scarce.
Device: iPhone 13 Pro Max
iOS: 16.6
Jailbreak: NathanLR (Rootless, Semi-JB)
App Info: Deployment target 16.0+, built for arm64, uses background fetch.
I made a Swift-based app to manage Docker instances. I packaged it into a .ipa using the ol' Payload folder bypass, and it installs fine manually.
Now if I want to distribute it via Sileo. I know I need a .deb, so I tried using rullinoiz’s [ipa2deb].
Sileo gave an APT install error. Then I tried converting the app for rootless—it actually installed, but crashes immediately on launch.
Both were kind of "hail mary" attempts. I think the issue might be related to code signing or certificate trust (since I’m not using a real dev account), but I’m not sure.
If anyone here has experience distributing Swift apps on modern jailbreaks (especially rootless), I’d appreciate any guidance or direction. I've scoured Google but haven't found much that's directly relevant.
