Expo 2.0 - The fastest way to build an iOS and Android app 📱

Expo enables you to build cross-platform native apps using only JavaScript.

In addition to React Native components, you'll have access to the Expo SDK, a library that provides a wide range of native APIs on iOS and Android. Expo can also manage assets for you, handle push notifications, and build your native binary for submission to the app store.

@amos_gyamfi raised an excellent question in Dropsources' launch yesterday: "According to this article, https://techcrunch.com/2017/12/0... Apple is trying to ban App generation services. How will [Expo] tackle this problem?"

@amos_gyamfi @scotty_bowler interesting question! We're not an commercialized template or app generation service. We simply offer a means for developers to write cross-platform mobile applications using JavaScript.

While React Native's intention was to simplify the app development process, Expo takes it one step further, providing everything you need to get an app up and running, with their updated website, app development is more approachable then ever

Pros:

The most approachable way to build an app, hands down

Cons:

Some limitations with using native libraries but due to the large Javascript community, there's almost always a workaround

Expo changes the way we build app. In 15 minutes you can build something and see your work on your device.

The team is reactive, replies fast. Best js framework for building mobile app <3

Pros:

Really fast to test a new app. Better than testflight !

Cons:

Sometimes it's difficult to use custom native librairies

Expo is really an amazing tool! I have created lots of applications using Expo. I was also lucky enough to interview @ccheever on Clubhouse.
