Publishing

Publishing to Google Play and the App Store

Building and Publishing took the Capacitor 243,123 BookNest through upload keys, version codes, Android App Bundles, Play App Signing and both stores' consoles, and none of that changes for a React Native 36,878 app. What does change is where the settings live. Artwork, versions and identifiers come from app.json and are written into android/ by prebuild, so a hand edit disappears on the next prebuild, and Expo 6,418 's services can upload, check and update the app for you. This section covers those differences, the privacy and supply-chain checks that both stores now make, and updates after launch, and it ends with a signed release of this chapter's complete BookNest.
