We use Expo to test and build native apps, and we also use NextJS to build for web from the same codebase.
When a developer makes a pull request on our repository, that PR spins up a disposable testing environment for web by deploying the code from that PR to a temporary environment. When the PR merges, that temporary environment self-deletes.
It would be cool to achieve that same functionality with Expo: being able to test only the code changes made in a pull request in isolation. A couple of ideas I have are:
https://expo.dev/@org/project-slug
URLs. When the PR is merged, the project can be removed using a cleanup task. This would require expo-cli to support project deletion so that cleanup tasks can be made.This mainly benefits testers, making it easy for developers to make pull requests and share a URL for testers to use with Expo GO.
