Expo Deployment

Expo Deployment

Overview

Deploy Expo applications to production environments, including app stores and over-the-air updates.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to deploy Expo apps to production.

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

Memory-First Protocol

Retrieve prior deployment configurations, rollback procedures, and incident post-mortems. Avoid re-discovering infrastructure patterns.

# Check for prior infrastructure context before starting
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "deployment configuration and patterns for Expo Deployment"

Storing Results

After completing work, store infrastructure decisions for future sessions:

python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \
  --content "Deployment pipeline: configured blue-green deployment with health checks on port 8080" \
  --type technical --project <project> \
  --tags expo-deployment devops

Multi-Agent Collaboration

Broadcast deployment changes so frontend and backend agents update their configurations accordingly.

python3 execution/cross_agent_context.py store \
  --agent "<your-agent>" \
  --action "Deployed infrastructure changes — updated CI/CD pipeline with new health check endpoints" \
  --project <project>

Playbook Integration

Use the ship-saas-mvp or full-stack-deploy playbook to sequence this skill with testing, documentation, and deployment verification.
