Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/231

currently you need to use local dev cert sideloading methods (alt/side-store etc..) for lc to work without kit, however I would prefer to just use my Apple dev account and have lc be able to import a certificate and provisioning profile like other signing apps do.

I wouldn’t be opposed to pr-ing this either if assigned

You are welcomed to pr this feature as well as #233, just make sure to develop based on 3.1.0 as 3.0.0 don't have its own signer.

I'm aware of that, you however closed the linked issue that was supposed to track the fact that ADP certs require security scoped file access

Personal cert support is implemented in the latest build (3.2.50) and you can have a try if you want. Some functions or apps will not work due to entitlement issues varying from cert to cert. I have only tested this feature on enterprise certs, so I'm not sure if it also works well on personal (ah hoc) certs

Oh thanks, I do have a branch with my approach lying around as well I've just been away for over a month, guess that one can go in the bin now, this is very much sufficient to debug tweaks, the fact that it mirrors the entitlements is actually a good thing for this case, because sideloaded apps and therefore tweaks will behave the same way they will when just plainly sideloaded,

thank you this makes tweaking development quite feasible on jailed devices now
