The reviews

EAS Build, OTA updates, and the managed workflow eliminate the worst parts of mobile development. Indispensable.

Helpful?

Expo has matured from toy to production platform. The config plugins and custom dev clients removed the old limitations.

Helpful?

Expo is making React Native the default for mobile. Universal apps (web + mobile) from one codebase is the future.
