+# Android Expo Build & Upload
+#
+# Android twin of build-ios-from-expo.yml. Composes mieweb/actions building
+# blocks (pinned to v2.3.0):
+#   checkout + Node + JS deps → stamp versionCode → expo prebuild (android)
+#   → build-sign-android (direct-keystore) → publish-android-to-play
+#
+# Signing mode: direct-keystore
+#   You supply the upload keystore (.jks) and its credentials as secrets.
+#   Gradle signs the release bundle with injected signing properties — no
+#   fastlane match, no keystore committed to the repo.
+#
+# Required org/repo secrets:
+#   ANDROID_KEYSTORE_BASE64    base64 of the upload keystore (.jks)
+#   ANDROID_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD  keystore password
+#   ANDROID_KEY_ALIAS          signing key alias inside the keystore
+#   ANDROID_KEY_PASSWORD       password of that key
+#   PLAY_JSON_KEY_BASE64       base64 of the Google Play service-account JSON
+#                              (only needed when uploading to Google Play)
+#
+# NOTE: the very FIRST bundle for a new Play Console app must be uploaded
+# manually through the Play Console UI; the API (and therefore this workflow)
+# can only publish once the app record exists with an initial upload.
