Hi Tal,

Where does backendless.jar come from? Is it from maven or our website (or perhaps our github repo)?

Hey mark.
the jar is from your git Repo

How long ago did you get it? Or is it the latest build? (we updated it 3 days ago)

I did not get the latest release.

where can I find the latest jar?
