About expo-deployment

The expo-deployment skill provides a comprehensive solution for deploying Expo applications across multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, and web environments. By leveraging Expo Application Services (EAS), it simplifies the often complex process of building, submitting, and hosting apps. This skill addresses the challenges developers face when managing platform-specific deployment requirements, automating builds, handling credentials, and maintaining consistent versioning across environments, ultimately reducing manual overhead and the risk of errors during deployment.

FAQ

How do I start deploying an Expo app using this skill?

Begin by installing the EAS CLI with npm and logging in. Then initialize your project with `npx eas-cli@latest init` to create `eas.json` and configure build profiles for production or development.

Which platforms are supported for deployment?

This skill supports deployment to iOS (App Store and TestFlight), Android (Play Store), and web hosting via EAS Hosting. Platform-specific configuration and credentials are required for each.

Can I automate deployments with CI/CD?

Yes, EAS Workflows can be used for automated builds and submissions. You can define workflows in YAML files, specifying jobs for building and submitting apps on different platforms.

How does version management work?

EAS can automatically manage version numbers using `appVersionSource: 'remote'`. You can also manually set build numbers or versions for iOS and Android if needed.

Are there any prerequisites or limitations?

You need valid Apple and Google developer accounts, configured credentials, and the latest EAS CLI installed. Platform-specific requirements like service account keys for Google Play or Apple IDs for iOS submissions must be met.
