Note

This guide describes the steps needed to set up the Librem 5 phone for application development.

• Connecting via USB
• Development Tools

Overview

We begin by connecting the phone to a workstation and setting up a network connection before installing tools that assist with software development on the phone itself.

Once development tools are installed, you can develop software on the phone itself. Alternatively, you can use the network connection to conveniently copy software built on a workstation to the phone for testing and installation.

For troubleshooting advice, see the Troubleshooting section.
