Live App Updates Without The App Store
summary
Shows a concrete workflow for pushing web-layer changes of a hybrid app live without App Store reapproval: commit to Git, Ionic Pro builds binaries and publishes to channels, client app detects updates downloads extracts and applies them on next run. Demonstrates swapping an image and unlocking a VIP tab as live updates, mentions Ionic, Cordova, cloud builds, real-time error reporting, and ecosystem scale (30k+ GitHub stars, 13k Slack, 25M users). This is about shipping hot fixes and feature toggles, not theory.
