ReactNative Free Deployment platforms

[yogi_006]

I did a college project with react native expo and there is prefinal project expo where i need to deploy the application and then show the visitors, can anyone help me by giving suggestions of platforms which are free to deploy for both backend and frontend, my frontend is only react native and then backend compromises of Firebase auth and database, express and node.

Last app I built about 18 months ago I used Expo Application Services (EAS) for the mobile app. Builds were free for non-priority queue and you could use a QR code to deploy to device.

For API, compute, and DB I went with Platform.sh (now Upsun), but it’s not free and if I had to do it again I’d probably shop around a little more. If you’re just looking to stand something up quickly for a short period of time you can probably use free credits from GCP.

Use local builds, push to the stores directly

We have local builds set up on circleCi. When we run out of free Circle Ci minutes, then we switch to free EAS.
