Publish to AltStore with each release

[silentsilas]

Introduction

Currently, the TestFlight beta is full. Technically-inclined users would be able to work around this by side-loading the IPA via AltStore.

Requirements

• Create an IPA via Xcode
• Host it somewhere, lots of projects automate it with Github Releases
• Follow this guide to create a "source" that users can paste into AltStore to install the app

Discussion

Users with a paid Apple developer account can install it by adding the bundle identifier to their account and exporting an archive. This requires a Mac, $99 for the developer account, and the technical know-how to use Xcode to build an IPA under their Apple team. A publicly-available IPA and/or publishing to AltStore would let users without a Mac or paid developer account sideload the app.

What I Need

Essentially, the X Y problem is the need for an alternative method to install the app while the Testflight beta is full.
