Hot code push in react native

Yes, Microsoft Code Push is hot now-a-days but my problem is they do not support GitLab which I am using right now to build my mobile app. React native auto updater is no longer being maintained.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Microsoft Code Push is part of App Center. Github integration is not required to use its over-the-air update feature (which is what react-native-auto-updater does).

You can use the code-push cli or appcenter cli to publish your Javascript code to the cloud, and use react-native-code-push to retrieve the updates in your RN app.

Alternatively, you can use Expo which comes with its own OTA functionalities.

Github integration in App Center is only used for automatically building the .apk and .ipa binaries from the git commits. If you need an automatic binary build tool, you can try fastlane, or set up Git hooks to push your code to a private Github repository whenever it's pushed to Gitlab.
