Will Expo OTA updates work with new libraries?

I am looking into Expo OTA Updates and realizing how crucial it is for production builds on standalone apps.

I am wondering though, this seems to be a good fix for minor JavaScript changes to your app, what if you publish an update having added new library's and dependencies?

Will I have to build another binary for my standalone app or will expo publish take care of that?

Solution

  • After testing this out, it seems that any additions to new libraries does work.

    I did notice you need a new build if you change project files like app.json for example.
