Build increases significantly app file size

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion

Hi,

I read a bit about this but I’m kinda looking for confirmation:

I have a very simple app, its folder makes for a mere 400kb, but when I execute the build it gets to x10 the size (almost 5mb). Is this normal due to corona libraries or should I look into solving this?

Thanks!!

That is due to the libraries that Corona includes.

FYI: building with the debug key makes the app size a bit larger than using a release key.

As I imagined.

Thanks Alex!!!
