We've been able to make a lot of progress on the client consumption experience in the last few months (thanks to all of the amazing feedback we've received), but we definitely have a lot more work to do! The following is a list of pending ideas/todos that we know we need to do, and plan on tackling over the next couple of months (in no particular order):

1. Add support for the plugin being run within the context of the React Native Playground runner, so that devs can easily prototype an app that uses CodePush.

2. Expose the presence of an available update that requires updating the app from the store. This would accommodate both checkForUpdate and sync, and allow the developer to choose whether they wanted to prompt the end user to update from the store, as opposed to simply not getting the update.

3. Add an NPM post install hook that uses RNPM to do much of the iOS/Android installation automatically. This will make setting up new apps much easier.

4. Add a declarative way to enable calling sync automatically on app start, resume, on an interval, etc. Possibly a new Info.plist property and an extra constructor parameter for Android?

5. Enable displaying the update prompt after the download completes when calling sync, instead of before attempting the download. This way the dialog can determine whether the end-user wants to restart immediately or not, as opposed to deciding whether or not to perform the download/installation. This would enable another common app update experience that some apps use (e.g. VS Code).

6. Enable configuring basic throttling when calling the sync method so that you can delay showing update prompts after binary installations, prevent showing update prompts too frequently, etc.

7. Add a new property to the LocalPackage object returned by getCurrentPackage that indicates whether it represents the current update because a newer update crashed and was automatically rolled back.

8. Add a native API for reloading the app so that hybrid React Native apps (e.g. Android app with some embedded RN screens) can refresh their RN components programmatically.

9. Support publishing the Android component of our plugin to a Maven repository
