dist/apps/hello-world.zip is incorrectly packaged

[danialgoodwin]

The following ZIP is referenced in the Roku 'Getting Started', and it does NOT work for uploading: https://github.com/rokudev/hello-world/blob/master/dist/apps/hello-world.zip

(Source: https://developer.roku.com/docs/developer-program/getting-started/hello-world.md)

The error when trying to publish it: "The file you uploaded is incorrectly packaged. Please follow our guide to packaging an application and resubmit."

This ZIP should be updated or removed and the documentation updated.

Had the same issue and found two work arounds. You can open the zip file and then the correct zip file named hello-world.zip is located in the folder dist > apps you can also download the file on step 3 here took me some time to figure it out so I figured I could help the next person out
