Summary

Appflow, a managed mobile CI/CD platform, adapts to the evolving mobile operating system landscape by updating its build stacks for iOS and Android applications. Recently, Appflow introduced new build stacks, including Linux 2022.07 for Android, supporting Android SDK 32 and Cordova CLI 11, and macOS-2022.09 for iOS, supporting macOS 12, Xcode 13.4, and Cordova CLI 11, which may reduce iOS build times. The platform regularly updates build stacks while retiring older ones approximately two years after creation to ensure compatibility with the latest development tools. Appflow facilitates faster app building and delivery, encouraging users to adopt the latest stacks for optimal performance while providing older versions for specific needs.
