        Hello. I wrote my first app for Ubuntu Touch and was trying to submit it to Open Store. I submitted the form ok. But I am not sure how to upload the actual app. I didn't see a File Upload button.
        Does it absolutely require I upload it to GitHub? Or can I simply upload the ".click" file?
        I did search around for answers but none of the youtube videos or posts seem to cover app submission step-by-step.
        Thanks for any info.

          To be clear, I watched this video but it basically describes the publishing process as running the command:
          clickable click-build (which is now obsolete)
          and then
          clickable review
          then it switches to the browser to discuss what to enter in the text fields of the"submit form".
          But it doesn't really discuss how the app files get uploaded to the open store (unless I missed it).

            UPDATE: so I was able to click the "New Revision" button, and that displays a "File Upload" button.
            I browsed my local hard drive and uploaded a .click file I found in "build/all/app/myapp_1.0.0_all.click"

            Since the file was uploaded, and published, without error, am I correct in assuming the .click files are the correct app executable?

              Well, I was able to download my app from Open Store and run it on my Oneplus One, so I guess it worked out.

                Hi @dremonon , it sounds like you got the app uploaded & published successfully, congrats! To answer your question, the .click file is the packaging format (similar to an apk or a deb) and you are correct that the .click file is what you need to upload for your app to be on the OpenStore.
