The repo is here, and you can directly build it as a regular Flutter project.

[thautwarm/julia-android-example: Running Julia Code on Android with Flutter (UI) & Rust (Build System) & SyslabCC (Julia AOT Compiler)](https://github.com/thautwarm/julia-android-example/tree/main)

Unfortunately, the SyslabCC released for public use currently does not work with Flutter Windows/macOS build. You might just use the Android build, or build it under some Linux distro.

The built APK is a small scientific app for running heat equation simulation. The callsite of the Julia function is made in Rust (using Rinf) at [here](https://github.com/thautwarm/julia-android-example/blob/6cf057be600abf59fd8f6a01277ece92de1f4091/native/hub/src/sample_functions.rs#L57), which is simply a ccall in Rust.

You can build the releases yourself with simply:

```julia
 flutter build apk --split-per-abi

```

Also, the prebuilt releases can be downloaded from [Releases · thautwarm/julia-android-example](https://github.com/thautwarm/julia-android-example/releases), enjoy it!
