Use this skill when: - Deploying Expo apps to production - Publishing to app stores (iOS App Store, Google Play) - Setting up over-the-air (OTA) updates - Configuring production build settings - Managing release channels and versions ## Instructions This skill provides guidance for deploying Expo apps: 1. **Build Configuration**: Set up production build settings 2. **App Store Submission**: Prepare and submit to app stores 3. **OTA Updates**: Configure over-the-air update channels 4. **Release Management**: Manage versions and release channels 5. **Production Optimization**: Optimize apps for production ## Deployment Workflow ### Pre-Deployment 1. Ensure all tests pass 2. Update version numbers 3. Configure production environment variables 4. Review and optimize app bundle size 5. Test production builds locally ### App Store Deployment 1. Build production binaries (iOS/Android) 2. Configure app store metadata 3. Submit to App Store Connect / Google Play Console 4. Manage app store listings and screenshots 5. Handle app review process ### OTA Updates 1. Configure update channels (production, staging, etc.) 2. Build and publish updates 3. Manage rollout strategies 4. Monitor update adoption 5. Handle rollbacks if needed ## Best Practices - Use EAS Build for reliable production builds - Test production builds before submission - Implement proper error tracking and analytics - Use release channels for staged rollouts - Keep app store metadata up to date - Monitor app performance in production ## Resources For more information, see the [source repository](https://github.com/expo/skills/tree/main/plugins/expo-deployment).
