Builder

🏗️ Builder for building local & cloud expo apps

Builder beaver is a project manager, it manages your builds but doesn't actually build your app, it uses EAS cloud and EAS local, it has a fancy little UI which makes building your app a little more fun.

But builder beaver can do more than just a fancy UI:

• 🔗 Move build files to a directory (even from WSL to windows)
• ✨ Default options for quick builds
• ⏳ Save time with typechecks

⚠️ Builder can only build apps using EAS (cloud or local)

Getting started

This will install @beaverfy/builder using your project's package manager:

npx expo install @beaverfy/builder
