Guides to get things done
In the 'Get Started' section we walk through how you can install Expo tools, create your first app, guide you through a tutorial, and give you a conceptual overview of what working with Expo tools looks like, the limitations, and common questions folks have.
The guides section of the documentation is oriented towards getting things done: we explain how to use certain tools and how to perform tasks that you may encounter while building your app. The guides are split up into two main sections: managed workflow and bare workflow.
In the managed workflow section we discuss topics as they apply specifically to building a managed workflow project (what's that?). Some popular topics include:
- Expo CLI
- Debugging
- iOS Simulator
- Android Emulator
- App Icons
- Splash Screens
- Distributing your App on the App Store and Play Store
- Configuring Over-the-Air Updates
- Release Channels
- Push Notifications
- ....and more. Scroll through the sidebar or press
/on your keyboard to search the documentation if a particular topic interests you.
The bare workflow section provides less guides than are available in the managed workflow currently, there is more to come here in the near future.
- See a walkthrough of the bare workflow
- Integrating Expo SDK into an existing React Native app
- Learn which APIs from the Expo SDK are available in bare React Native apps
- Using Expo for web
The API Reference includes comprehensive documentation around the built-in APIs in the Expo SDK and how to use them.
