We have to add in-app purchases for the iOS, macOS and Android store, so
that users can also get the premium features of the app without using
Stripe for payments.
The in-app purchases are only enabled when a user uses the app with the
default Supabase environment or with the Supabase environment provided
during build time. If a user uses his own Supabase instance, he will not
be able to upgrade to the premium tier via in-app purchases.
We are using RevenueCat for in-app purchases, which automatically sends
all the events for a user to the "revenuecat-webhooks-v1" edge function.
Depending on the received event we can then upgrade / downgrade the
users profile. To be able to use RevenueCat as an additional provider to
Stripe we also had to add a new "subscriptionProvider" provider column
to the "profiles" table, which stores the information via which provider
a user upgraded his account.
The settings page now contains an info section, which is used to show
the current app version via the "package_info_plus" package, the link to
our website, the link to our GitHub repository and the link to our X
account.
Add continuous delivery workflows for the desktop apps. While we want to
provide the desktop versions of FeedDeck though the different app stores
we still want to build them via GitHub Actions, so users can also test
the desktop apps before an official release.
This is also useful to build the binaries we can then download and
upload to the official stores, since we currently only have a macOS
system to build the apps.
