Is there someone that has already published an LAMW app on F-droid? Do
you have some tips or suggestions? there is a guide?

There are currently 2 apps in f-droid that are built with fpc. I'm not
sure if they use LAMW.

These are the apps:
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.benibela.videlibri/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/pl.suve.colorful.android/

You can check the build instructions here:
https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-
/blob/master/metadata/de.benibela.videlibri.yml?ref_type=heads
https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-
/blob/master/metadata/pl.suve.colorful.android.yml?ref_type=heads

Also check out this file, it specifies where the FPC sources are from:
https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-
/blob/master/srclibs/fpc.yml?ref_type=heads

Both these apps do not use "Reproducible Builds", which is recommended
for new apps. So if you like a challenge you can try that, but it's
not required.

For me it's not that easy to understand what they did because all the
folders and a lot of file are very different from a common LAMW
directory. Maybe i have to contact some of those developers!

Both aren't LAMW. Following the links:
