These are some commands I use very often for developing React Native apps with Expo. Keep in mind some additional packages such as expo-dev-client and expo-updates may be required. You may also need to update your eas.json channels.
expo start -c
The -c flag just clears the cache which I find helpful. In the latest version of Expo it will prompt you to run the development build or inside Expo Go. You can also just add the –dev-client flag to your command if you’d like to run your app in your development build.
eas build --profile development
eas build --profile development-simulator --platform ios
This will require a separate “development-simulator” profile with some additional configuration inside your eas.json file.
eas update
Updates are self explanatory but can be used, also to distribute your app internally whiteout having to run a local server. You will need expo-updates installed for this one.
eas submit
This will bundle your build and send it to the appropriate store for people to download and enjoy!
