Seems this discussion got some amount of off-topic. Yet TL;DR; for it:

to get a working apk one needs either make example or populate assets with some other Lua code.
Actually extending this luajit Android launcher is possible with Lua modules and even binary modules (I managed to build luasocket for it BTW)
There are some other projects “recommended to consider” but all have their peculiarities. I like this one ATM.
