Why React devs choose Expo

Expo is the React Native framework recommended by Meta, and it’s an excellent choice for web developers with React experience who want to build mobile apps.

Take your React skills to the App Store

React Native uses the same component-based model as React. Most of your app code will be in JavaScript or TypeScript, so the patterns and libraries you already know continue to apply.

React Native is truly native

React Native renders to actual platform primitives, not webviews. Your components map to real iOS and Android UI elements, giving you the performance and polish users expect.
