Reviewer scorecard
“EAS Build, OTA updates, and the managed workflow eliminate the worst parts of mobile development. Indispensable.”
“The best GraphQL server for Node.js. Envelop plugin system and multi-runtime support (Bun, Deno, Workers).”
“Expo has matured from toy to production platform. The config plugins and custom dev clients removed the old limitations.”
“If you're building a GraphQL API in Node.js, Yoga with Envelop plugins is the most maintainable approach.”
“Expo is making React Native the default for mobile. Universal apps (web + mobile) from one codebase is the future.”
“GraphQL servers are mature technology. Innovation has moved to the client and tooling layer.”
