Shelter doesn’t have release on github, Can I still install it through obtanium?

Title pretty much explains all that I wanted to ask. If a repo doesn’t have release on github or other website, how can we install those app through obtanium?

thanks a lot

    GitHub is often used as a code mirror, with the actual repo and builds being hosted elsewhere.

    Shelter, as in the work profile app? It shows up on Droid-ify for me, and a check of the Links section confirms it’s hosted on a different repo (gitea.angry.im).

    No, afaik. Building on your phone would be very slow anyways. Idk what shelter is, there are way too many projects with that name on GH. If it’s a slow releasing app, you could build it once and install it. Otherwise, maybe fork it and set up releases there.
