jadx: Decompile a Dex file into a directory.
$ jadx ${filename}
try on your machine
The command "jadx ${filename}" is used to decompile an Android APK (application package) file.
Here's an explanation of each part of the command:
- "jadx": This is the name of the decompiler tool. It is a popular open-source command-line tool used for reverse engineering Android applications.
- "${filename}": This is a placeholder representing the filename of the APK file you want to decompile. You need to replace "${filename}" with the actual name of the APK file.
When you run this command with the actual APK filename, the jadx decompiler tool will decompile the APK file and extract the Java source code from it. This can be useful for various purposes like understanding how an application works, debugging, or modifying the source code.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
