Summary

Complete guide for building native Expo apps with routing, styling, components, and platform conventions.

  • Covers Expo Router fundamentals, native tabs, stack navigation, modals, and form sheets with detailed route structure conventions
  • Includes styling rules aligned with Apple Human Interface Guidelines: flexbox layouts, safe area handling, animations, shadows via CSS boxShadow, and responsive design patterns
  • Documents library preferences (expo-image for SF Symbols, expo-audio, expo-video, expo-glass-effect) and anti-patterns to avoid (legacy modules, intrinsic HTML elements, StyleSheet over inline styles)
  • Provides reference guides for animations, controls, search, storage, visual effects, WebGPU/3D graphics, and zoom transitions
  • Emphasizes testing in Expo Go first before creating custom builds, with clear guidance on when native code is actually required
