excluding files question

Hi - at the bottom of this page on excluding files in your build settings it says “Excluding files is a feature of Corona — it does not work for Corona Native builds.”

I don’t know what this means. What is a Corona native build? thanks.

Most folks build their apps via the Simulator.  

Your other option is to use native (Android or iOS) build tools to build the Corona project.

In short, if you don’t know what it is, you’re not doing it, so you don’t need to worry about that ‘excluding files’ note.

You can learn more about native builds here: https://docs.coronalabs.com/native/index.html

I had no idea you could use native tools on a Corona project. I’ll read up. Thanks.
