SAB installer much larger

Just curious… The 12.5 SAB setup installer is around 200Mb larger than 12.4. What caused the big jump? I noticed that the other app builders didn’t have a corresponding jump in size.

Yes, the install files are larger now. This is because they now contain some libraries that would have otherwise been downloaded at the first app build.

That sounds like a good thing. I did some App Builder training recently, and were somewhat blocked by poor Internet. Since this change wasn’t mentioned as a new feature, I assume that on your first build there is still an Internet connection requirement, but it just has less that needs to be downloaded?

Are these libraries that need to be downloaded used by the other app builders as well, or are they unique to SAB? And if not unique, do you plan to put them in the other app builders as well, to reduce the download requirements on first app build?

Thanks for all you do!

Yes, there is still an internet requirement for the first build but there will be less to download. The libraries are unique to Scripture apps.
