When i try to build it fails on not finding an image:

The image is present in the assets/images directory

Changing the reference to assets/icon.png makes it successfully compile. I guess you need to add support for nested assets.

514

FAST support nested assets. Could you please show us how you are referencing it from the source?

515 
@DesignerComponent(
    version = 9,
    description = "Full featured MIFARE Classic and Ultralight NFC reader/writer extension",
    category = ComponentCategory.EXTENSION,
    nonVisible = true,
    iconName = "images/extension.png"
)
516

are you sure about this? even if any one extra space, or spelling mistake may thorw this error

517

Pretty sure, but like i said i got it working by changing it to the default.
Maybe wait and see if someone else has this problem.

I just installed today, so maybe this is a fresh build issue.
But maybe i did make a small mistake somewhere. But this is no longer an issue for me

However, this line is not required.

This project looks good : I've saw very much extensions made with FAST CLI . But I didn't tested it because I am a ... beginner , so can I give you @JEWEL an idea ? Why don't you make a web version , maybe with block-based coding for beginners and a preview tester ? ( The blocks maybe should be named like the one in appinventor , not like the java code , for comprension of beginners ) . And with a 'Try' version for who doesn't want to log in .
Because of the combination of block-based coding , web editor with preview and a try version without login , you'll have a bigger number of users
P.S. : I know that with a partner you made also an AI web based extension coder but AI is imprevedible and that is not FAST CLI because of many differences so this can be a good idea no ?
