• Java Decompiler

  More modern choice would be [jadx](https://github.com/skylot/jadx) or [Vineflower](https://github.com/Vineflower/vineflower). Or if you want to paid, [JEB](https://www.pnfsoftware.com/). - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: How can I recover and run my old mobile game from the 2010s?

  If you do find an .apk and didn't obfuscate it with proguard (I can't remember if proguard ran default in the release pipeline in Eclipse ADT...which...ew) you can use jadx to decompile your .apk and recover the structure of your source code! https://github.com/skylot/jadx. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• I hacked my washing machine

  First up: this isn't criticism of the original post in the slightest, it's a wonderful journey through figuring out how a weird device that wants to be on your wifi works. If you have a device that speaks to an Android app, you want https://github.com/niklashigi/apk-mitm will turn an apk into something that approximates Java, and digging through that will often let you figure out what the key is. But some vendors... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Debugging an Undebuggable App

  > I remember something like dex2jar also, which gave you a jar you could use in any java decompiler, like jdgui, procyon etc. https://github.com/skylot/jadx is very handy for that nowadays. It also supports interactive variable/method/class name renaming to make the decomplied code easier to read. The decompiler isn't perfect, but I guess all available Java decompilers... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Hunting the Hacker: A Deep Dive into Courier Fraud

  Suspicious of the request, our colleague forwarded the APK to me, knowing my expertise in software development and cybersecurity. My investigation began by downloading and extracting the contents of the APK. Inside, I found several dex files, which I knew contained the app's compiled source code. Using a tool called jadx, (jadx -d extractedapkfile) I decompiled the APK to inspect its source code. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• I almost credited llms.txt for a Google AI Mode win. Then I read what Google actually says.

  Where llms.txt genuinely gets read is a different layer: coding and agent tooling — Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf — pulling a documentation site's pages with less token waste, plus emerging agent protocols like OpenAI's Agents SDK. That's real, and it's growing fast. - Source: dev.to / 11 days ago

• GitHub Copilot for Engineers: Getting Better Results

  You need an active GitHub Copilot subscription. Plans are available at individual, business, and enterprise tiers at github.com/features/copilot. Once active, all tools use your GitHub account credentials. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Agentic: Which App/Harness Is Best for Angular Development?

  For over a decade PhpStorm (starting in my WordPress era) and later WebStorm have been my main IDEs for web development. So when GitHub Copilot launched, it was a natural choice to try it out in WebStorm. It was one of the first AI coding tools I used, and it had a big impact on how I thought about AI-assisted coding. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Your Design System Needs An MCP Server

  Before we get into it, there are some things about AI usage worth addressing. I've had my fair share of scepticism in the past, but recent model releases have made it increasingly difficult to argue that AI isn't a viable tool for the majority of workstreams, including building user interfaces. Most large language models are trained on public data scraped from the internet, which means your internal design system... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Custom Copilot Agents: Building Domain-Expert AI Teammates with Skills, MCP Tools, and Custom Knowledge

  Most developers still treat GitHub Copilot like a very good autocomplete engine. That's useful, but it's not the real unlock. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
