It is a common problem to have a 'development network' and a 'release network'.
For my needs I decided to have a 'network in a box': a wifi accesspoint with DHCP, a switch and some cables packed together in a plastic transport box. Can run this in the lab for development and can be carried to presentations or off site development.
Some of my ESP32 have multiple wifi/network configurations and on boot check which wifi network is available. So they work with my home network and also with the 'network in the box'.
Static IP addresses can be avoided in DHCP network: when RPi use 'hostname' and clients connect to this name (and not to IP numbers).
