In March 2024, Microsoft announced the sunset of App Center in 12 months. Bearing in mind how big of a deal CodePush is for React Native applications, it’s a radical change for developers and businesses alike. We’re releasing this episode six months before it actually takes place because it’s high time you started planning migration (if you haven’t already).
Life after App Center retirement
In this episode, we discuss the impact of App Center's sunsetting on businesses, explore the best alternatives, and provide actionable insights on how to prepare for the transition. And since our focus is the React Native ecosystem, Łukasz Chludziński and Mazen Chami invited a very special guest: Quinlan Jung from Expo. Together, they talk about:
- The meaning of App Center retirement
- Community reception of this piece of news
- Most frequently used App Center’s functionalities and their replacements
- How Expo Application Services fit the picture
- Migration tips for businesses, especially enterprises
