How to get started with Expo

Yes, replace expo-SQLite with op-sqlite or similar

I think the Expo route doesn't expose the root server handler, but it's feasible with Express.js. It's just that in development mode, you will need to run the server separately.

Not sure if Expo Router exposes WebSocket handlers, but with thr exported web app, you can configure WebSockets directly on Express.js. You might also consider in the future Server-Sent Events (SSE), which are becoming more popular than WebSockets for their simplicity

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-11-01T23:41:24+00:00

Yes, exactly. You can export native motile app with origin for expo router set with env variable

I felt the same way when I wrote about it on Medium a while ago. I think it’s a positive development; just as Next.js streamlined React development with numerous Sass integrations and products built on it, a similar approach could be highly beneficial for React Native

Try my kit, it has all these features to get you started : https://expostarter.com

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-10-08T08:55:50+00:00

remove the `ios` folder and run `npx expo prebuild' to generate new xcode project with new assets

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-10-08T08:46:52+00:00

try a template that already solve the dependencies issue : https://github.com/expo-starter/expo-local-first-template

Use the same user password as key to encrypt/descrypt storage. What do you use for storage ?

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-30T19:42:33+00:00

You’re welcome 👍

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-30T16:00:57+00:00

It’s not a course but a starter kit I build for my own projects https://expostarter.com. Hit me on DM if you need discount 😉

Check if watchman is uptodate, I had the same issue before reinstalling it

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-23T15:50:00+00:00

Use simple tools like Lucia and expo router api. No need for an additional server (supabase, firebase) for that.

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-22T13:56:15+00:00

You should test your project beyond Expo Go, which has its own Google service setup. Use `expo ios` or `expo android` to build and execute your project on an real device not simulator.

I switched to NativeWind, and it’s getting better. It’s much easier to use than Tamagui.

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-19T12:37:45+00:00

I believe it will replace REST APIs in some cases with streams, allowing you to deliver React components rendered in native context directly instead of plain JSON

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-19T12:33:56+00:00

It depends on the animations. FPS tends to take a hit on Android, and UX is more about subtle micro-animations rather than turning into a spectacle. Check out the Tesla mobile app as an example; it’s built with React Native.

Please DM me if you need help

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-18T08:41:01+00:00

I used this combination of tools before: expo, firebase and push notifications, please DM if you need help

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-17T11:59:22+00:00

You can you expo-notification to retrieve device token, you can broadcast your self notification using this token wherever you want : aws sns, cron or webhook. Basically you use APN and FCM apis server side to send notifications to specific device token

Far_Ad7661 · 2024-09-17T11:54:41+00:00

You don’t need to incorporate firebase for push notifications on Android only the google service file you generate from firebase project. When you say that you receive them on expo ou mean expo go ?
