Once you create a distribution build you can look up the normal App Store/Play Store documentation on how to publish your app inside the store.

The only think in Titanum you have to do is to create those builds (IPA, APK). You can have a look here

• https://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides2/Distributing+Android+apps
• https://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides2/Distributing+iOS+apps

or use the packages for Atom/VS Code

• https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=axway.vscode-titanium
• https://atom.io/packages/appcelerator-titanium

where you can use the GUI to create those builds.

To create your certificates I recommend looking at the official documentation:

• https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing
• https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/creating_api_keys_for_app_store_connect_api

Once you have those keys you can select them in Atom/Vscode and click the distribution buttons.

Of course you can also use the CLI: https://github.com/m1ga/from_zero_to_app/blob/master/installation.md#the-cli-way

# android to store/file
appc ti build -p android -K /home/user/keyfile.keystore -T dist-playstore

# iOS ipa/device/store: will show you a menu to select the different profiles
appc ti build -p ios --target ?
