Native Deploys
In addition to deploying on the web, Holtzman can be used to target multiple devices and app stores using the Cordova web view. Using the meteor build tool, we currently generate two different native versions of the app: one for iOS, and one for Android. We currently automate this process using launch.
The Android build uses the Crosswalk web view, and generates two different APK files for targeting different processor types. These APKs can be used to deploy to all major Android phones and tablets running Android 23 or later.
The iOS build uses Apple's updated WKWebView, and only generates one Universal Xcode project. This project can be used to target all major iOS phones and tablets running iOS 8.0 or later.
- iOS App Store (iOS)
- Google Play Store (Android)
- Amazon App Store (Android)
Due to the rise of native applications wrapping web technologies, it is also possible to target many other devices and app stores using this same code base. Some preliminary research was done to attempt to extend augment meteor's build tool in the meteor-package repo. Currently, it is able to generate an electron app, and a Chrome app, although possibly outdated. It would be great to eventually move this to the launch project.
