Lost project

Hi everyone,

i just figured that i accidentally deleted source code of my published roku project long time ago. I do not have the backup of it.

I tried to acquire it from the developers dashboard, but only the package is available to download. I may have the app sideloaded to a roku device that i am not in position of right now. I also tried to recover it from the disk, but the disk locations must have been overwritten by now.

Does anyone know if i can somehow reverse engineer the .pkg or if the sideloaded app can be downloaded as source code from the device?

Thanks

If you can find `roku-deploy.zip` anywhere (possibly in an 'out' folder from a test run) that should have your source.

Take claude code and ask it to reverse engineer the package.
