Raise – install page
A one-page site that installs the Raise build on a registered iPhone, over
the air, with one tap. Deploy it on Vercel; nothing to configure.
Deploy
- Push this folder to a GitHub repository (the whole folder is the site).
- In Vercel: Add New → Project → Import that repository. Framework
preset: Other. Leave build settings empty. Deploy.
- Open the Vercel URL in Safari on the iPhone and tap Download Raise.
iOS asks to install; the icon appears on the home screen.
- First launch: if iOS says the developer is untrusted, go to Settings →
General → VPN & Device Management → trust the developer, then open Raise.
How it works
Raise.ipa is the signed build. It only installs on iPhones that are in
its provisioning profile (registered in the Apple Developer account).api/manifest.js is a tiny serverless function that returns the OTA
manifest iOS needs, with the IPA URL built from the current domain, so it
works on any Vercel URL or custom domain.index.html has the button (an itms-services:// link to that manifest).
New build
In the app project run tools/make_ipa.sh; it builds Release for the
device, packages Raise.ipa into this folder, and you push + Vercel
redeploys. The IPA is ~28 MB (the app's images are compressed for device
builds); each new build adds another copy to the repository's history.
