11 Failures Before My CI/CD Pipeline Worked: A VibeCoder's Guide to Expo + GitHub Actions + DeployGate

TL;DR AI

Key summary

  1. Arc is a mobile CRM for bodywork therapists, built with Expo, React Native, and Supabase.

  2. The MVP is 85% done, with 28 files, 27 screens, and 18 functional screens.

  3. Expo Go cannot use native modules, and TestFlight can add hours or days because of Apple's review queue.

  4. Early CI/CD attempts failed when two workflows ran on one push, then because binary files were in the repo, then with the same Embed Pods Frameworks crash.

  5. DeployGate plus a self-hosted GitHub Actions runner on a 13-inch M5 MacBook Air solved delivery: pushes to main reach testers in about 10 minutes, for $0/month and unlimited builds.
