Hot Reload Over the Wire: Metro Internals for Remote Development
summary
Revyl connects Metro bundle resolution to the HMR WebSocket protocol and to Expo development clients by proxying and tunneling Metro traffic into cloud simulators, running a Metro server in the cloud, and routing HMR events over an encrypted channel. A CLI spins up builds, starts sessions, records logs/screenshots, replays interactions, and lets humans take over; demos claim it works end to end and enables parallel verification and agent-driven workflows.
