How does one publish to Android?

I have used Intel XDK several time, it was pretty simple. Phone gap keeps giving me a debug apk. (don't tell me to unclick debug or that my key is wrong, etc....they are correct) I've been at this for 4 days and am getting pissy lol.

Someone should write an app that has step by step instructions (because the key issue is a huge pain in the rump).

I mean seriously, it took 2 days to write the app and now 4 days to publish...nutty.

Any thoughts would be great. Thanks J

I recommend forget about phonegap and use apksigner (this is part of android studio build tools).

After setup you only need one line of command to sign your apk

cordova much better

monaca.io

Took me a whopping 15 minutes from upload to pending publication.

See the tutorial how to publish mobile apps.

monaca.io is the cat's meow. Makes Intel's old XDK uploads look complex by comparison. I would highly recommend it to anyone. (oh, and it also makes storekey adds/changes extremely simple)

On thing of note, when updating the app it wants files in a none-compressed format (zip needed for first load only).

Damn, it should be easy but I really don't get this command line interface part....
