I guess the same thing should happen for eject as well, last time I used the eject cmd it did not check the value in the json for platform

@raajnadar - eject does not exist anymore, it was renamed to prebuild. the word eject doesn't make sense here anymore because everything continues working as before, you've just generated native projects.

@brentvatne not sure when were these changes made, But I still remember I used the expo eject cmd recently

Ok that is not a big deal, I thought both do different work

@raajnadar - it's just an alias for prebuild in expo-cli, and the command itself is marked as superseded under --help:

eject [path]                      Superseded by expo prebuild

if you use the new local cli, we tell you to run prebuild instead

╰─$ npx expo eject

  $ expo eject is not supported in the local CLI, please use npx expo prebuild instead
