-This directory contains the native files of libraries that were modified for relocation. They will be copied from here during the normal build steps.
-
-Before adding/updating a library, make sure you have Python 3.8+ installed and check the instructions below.
-
-How to add a library's natives:
-
-1. In `build.gradle`:
-
-- Make sure the target package is the same length or shorter (untested) than the source package. Underscores in native methods will be mapped to `_1` so account for that as well.
-- Exclude the native files and add them as `relocateNative` (see example).
-
-Example:
-
-```groovy
-relocate "org.sqlite", "dh_sqlite", {
-    exclude "org/sqlite/native/**"
-}
-
-transform(NativeTransformer) {
-    // NativeTransformer configuration
-    rootDir = project.rootDir
-
-    // Replace native strings, e.g. used in calls back to Java
-    relocateNative "org/sqlite", "dh_sqlite"
-    // Rename native methods used when calling from Java
-    relocateNative "org_sqlite", "dh_1sqlite"
-}
-```
-
-How to update a library's natives:
-
-1. Delete the library's folder in cache/.
-2. It will repopulate during the next build.
-
-Why does this step exist?
-
-- Native files are not handled by the shadow plugin correctly.
-- I preferred it as a more streamlined approach, although a bit hacky.
-- Possible alternatives:
-    - Use edited libraries' source code: although more straightforward, it requires maintaining and updating the repositories for the libraries being added
-    - Interfacing with the necessary libraries directly: an absolute mess for technical reasons
-
-What are libraries used?
-
-- LIEF: for fixing binaries after replacing strings
-- apple-codesign: for re-signing Mac binaries, since their signatures get invalidated after previous steps
