Recently I ran into a problem in React Native.

I wanted to be able to have more granular control of my build besides React Native's __DEV__.

Our QA people need to have a few tools at their disposal to run the APP vs our live and test servers. I don't want to make them download the project on Github and run it. That would force them onto a mac for iOS builds. I don't want to ship the app with __DEV__ on. It would be quite complex to have them connect to some dev package server to run the app A third option was needed. There should be a __QA__ flag. This way I can release the APP in without __DEV__ but keep some QA features I want. The naive way would be to have something like a globals.js file that you include and edit the file for different releases. eg.

FWIW: I didn't produce the content presented here (the outline from Edmond Lau's book). I've just copy-pasted it from somewhere over the Internet, but I cannot remember what exactly the original source is. I was also not able to find the author's name, so I cannot give him/her the proper credits.
