I use "Windows Subsystem for Android" to load my .apk's so I don't have to endure sluggish Android Studio.
When I do a sales demo meeting i get an automatic highlight reel to use as follow up (eg. A 90 second video summary of a 45min demo meeting)
We have GitHub Actions with a bunch of toggles and do our deployment that way... So we can choose from about 8 parts of the project and automatically deploy. It's more deterministic than from our own machines
I definitely need to take a look at how to deploy stuff. I still do it like a caveman - I set everything up locally, ftp it to a server, fiddle around there to make it work and leave it be. I only do static websites though so I’m not sure about the benefits but a hook to catch my latest push would be awesome.
Nice. How are the toggles controlled? Is there a web interface? Or simply a file checked into git?
I'm using a phone running a desktop GNU/Linux (PureOS, Debian fork). I am using a desktop Firefox with all desktop plugins on my phone. I run Waydroid for Android apps. I can connect it to the keyboard and screen and get the desktop out of it.
wow, this is really cool :D
