CONFIGURATION GUIDE
Let's Get Your App Ready for Launch 🚀
Welcome to the deployment configuration guide! We're about to set up everything you need to get your apps from development to the app stores. This guide will walk you through connecting all the essential services that power your app's deployment pipeline.
Before We Begin
You'll need active accounts with the following services. If you haven't created these yet, take a moment to set them up before continuing:
- Codemagic - For continuous integration and deployment
- Apple Developer Account - For iOS app distribution
- Google Play Console - For Android app distribution
- Shorebird - For over-the-air updates
One-Time Setup
The configurations we'll set up in this guide are one-time steps that establish your foundational deployment infrastructure. Codika will keep track of the values you set here, so you won't need to repeat these base configurations again. The steps to add a new app to the stores later will be much simpler.
What We'll Configure
In this guide, we are going to:
- Set up Codemagic as your deployment pipeline
- Configure iOS app signing and distribution
- Set up Android app signing credentials
- Connect Shorebird for live updates
Let's get started with configuring Codemagic first.
