Google does not notarise apps outside of the Play Store on Android, so, no, they will not do exactly that. My fav App Store on a fresh Android is Chrome , because you can use Chrome to install any other app store, or any app directly fro

Wait, all the web browsers had XSLT support all along? I remember using these things in a CSCI class, and, IIRC, we were using something akin to Tomcat to do transformations on the server, before serving HTML to the browser, circa 2005/
