In order to make new repositories more discoverable, they should be added to the remarkable-tablet topic.

Github Actions#

In order to reduce friction for users who want to use your application, it’s best to include automated builds using github actions. Our recommendation would be to use toltecmk to build a toltec package, and include it as a release artifact.

If you are writing your own action meant to assist with developing applications for the reMarkable tablet, please include the action and remarkable-tablet topics to your repository. Users can then easily find all the available github actions with with a simple search.
