- Add App ClipExpoOfficialAdd an iOS App Clip target to an Expo app. Use when the user mentions App Clip, AASA, apple-app-site-association, appclips, smart app banner, or wants to ship a lightweight iOS Clip invoked from a URL alongside their parent app.
- Building Native UIExpoOfficialBuild beautiful, native-feeling Expo screens. Covers Apple HIG styling, semantic colors, native controls, SF Symbols, media, animations, visual effects, gradients, storage, and responsive layout. For routing and navigation, use the expo-router skill.
- Eas App StoresExpoOfficialBuild and submit iOS and Android apps with EAS to TestFlight, the App Store, or Google Play. Supports Expo and other React Native projects, plus existing native apps. Use for eas.json setup, release pipelines, signing, app versions and build numbers, store submissions, and listing metadata.
- Eas HostingExpoOfficialDeploy Expo websites and Expo Router API routes to EAS Hosting - export the web bundle, run eas deploy for production and PR preview URLs, manage environment secrets and custom domains, and work within the Cloudflare Workers runtime. Also covers authoring API routes (+api.ts handlers, HTTP methods, request handling, CORS).
- Eas ObserveExpoOfficialUse for anything related to EAS Observe - adding `expo-observe` to an Expo project (AppMetricsRoot/ObserveRoot HOC, markInteractive and ObserveInteractiveMarker, the useObserve hook, the Expo Router / React Navigation integrations for per-route metrics, user-defined events via `Observe.logEvent`, error reporting via ObserveErrorBoundary and `Observe.reportError`, native crash reporting, source…
- Eas SimulatorExpoOfficialRun and control a user's app on a remote iOS/Android simulator hosted on EAS cloud. Read before running any `eas simulator:*` commands - it has the current syntax for this experimental API. Use whenever the user needs a simulator they can't run locally - 'run my app on a cloud simulator', 'use eas simulator to run/install/screenshot my app', 'I'm on Linux/Cursor and need an iOS device', 'no sim…
- Eas UpdateExpoOfficialConfigure and use EAS Update for over-the-air JavaScript and asset updates with expo-updates and EAS CLI. Use when setting up OTA updates, running eas update:configure or eas update, publishing to preview/staging/production channels, explaining branches/channels/runtime versions, testing updates, or debugging why an installed build still shows old code.
- Eas Update InsightsExpoOfficialCheck the health of published EAS Update: crash rates, install/launch counts, unique users, payload size, and the split between embedded and OTA users per channel. Use when the user asks how an update is performing, whether a rollout is healthy, how many users are on the embedded build vs OTA, or wants to gate CI on update health.
- Eas WorkflowsExpoOfficialHelps understand and write EAS workflow YAML files for Expo projects. Use this skill when the user asks about CI/CD or workflows in an Expo or EAS context, mentions .eas/workflows/, or wants help with EAS build pipelines or deployment automation.
- Expo UI SwiftUIExpoOfficial`@expo/ui/swift-ui` package lets you use SwiftUI Views and modifiers in your app.
- Expo AnimationExpoOfficialBuild animations in React Native and Expo, making the decisions in the order that determines whether they feel right — should it animate, which thread it runs on, which properties, spring or timing, how the gesture hands off, how it degrades. Writes the implementation with Reanimated, Gesture Handler, Expo Router and expo-haptics.
- Expo App ClipExpoOfficialAdd an iOS App Clip target to an Expo app. Use when the user mentions App Clip, AASA, apple-app-site-association, appclips, smart app banner, or wants to ship a lightweight iOS Clip invoked from a URL alongside their parent app.
- Expo BrownfieldExpoOfficialIntegrate Expo and React Native into an existing native iOS or Android app. Use for brownfield, embedding a React Native screen in SwiftUI/UIKit or Kotlin, or AAR/XCFramework packaging. Covers isolated and integrated approaches. For building or distributing a purely native app with EAS, use eas-app-stores.
- Expo Data FetchingExpoOfficialUse when implementing or debugging ANY network request, API call, or data fetching. Covers fetch API, React Query, SWR, error handling, caching, offline support, loading/empty/error screen states, and Expo Router data loaders (`useLoaderData`).
- Expo DeploymentExpoOfficialDeploy Expo apps to production with EAS — build and submit to the iOS App Store, Google Play Store, and TestFlight, configure eas.json build and submit profiles, manage app versions and build numbers, publish App Store metadata and ASO, and deploy web bundles and API routes via EAS Hosting.
- Expo Design SystemExpoOfficialBuild and maintain a design system inside an Expo app - a reusable theme of design tokens (color, spacing, typography, radius, shadow, motion), reusable component structure with variant/size/state prop conventions, and rules for when to extract a repeated view into a shared component.
- Expo Dev ClientExpoOfficialBuild and distribute Expo development clients locally or via TestFlight for internal testing. For production TestFlight releases and store submission, use the eas-app-stores skill.
- Expo DomExpoOfficialUse Expo DOM components to run web code in a webview on native and as-is on web. Migrate web code to native incrementally. For the end-to-end migration of a whole web app, use the expo-web-to-native skill.
- Expo ExamplesExpoOfficialExpo's official example projects - the expo/examples repo of ~70 `with-*` integrations (Stripe, Clerk, Supabase, OpenAI, maps, Reanimated, SQLite, Skia, NativeWind, and more). Use when integrating a third-party library or service into an existing Expo app and you want the canonical, version-matched pattern to adapt, or when scaffolding a new project from one with `npx create-expo --example`.
- Expo Migrate ModuleExpoOfficialMigrate an existing Apple/Swift Expo native module from the Expo Modules API 1.0 definition DSL to the 2.0 macro API (sometimes called v2) while preserving its JavaScript and TypeScript contract. Use when converting or incrementally adopting @ExpoModule, @JS, @Event, @SharedObject, or @Record in an existing module.
- Expo ModuleExpoOfficialGuide for creating and writing Expo native modules and views using the Expo Modules API (Swift, Kotlin, TypeScript). Covers module definition DSL, native views, shared objects, config plugins, lifecycle hooks, autolinking, and type system. Use when building or modifying native modules for Expo.
- Expo Native UIExpoOfficialBuild beautiful, native-feeling Expo screens. Covers Apple HIG styling, semantic colors, native controls, SF Symbols, media, visual effects, gradients, storage, and responsive layout. For routing and navigation, use the expo-router skill; for motion and animation, use the expo-animation skill.
- Expo ObserveExpoOfficialUse for anything related to EAS Observe — adding `expo-observe` to an Expo project (AppMetricsRoot/ObserveRoot HOC, markInteractive, the useObserve hook, the Expo Router / React Navigation integrations for per-route metrics, and user-defined events via `Observe.logEvent`), querying via the EAS CLI (`eas observe:metrics-summary`, `observe:metrics`, `observe:routes`, `observe:events`…
- Expo OverviewExpoOfficialEntry point and router for every Expo or EAS task. Load this skill first — before writing code and before choosing another expo-* / eas-* skill — when the request, PRD, or spec mentions Expo, EAS, Expo Go, or an expo-* package, or the project has an `expo` dependency in `package.json`.
- Expo Project StructureExpoOfficialFolder structure for a new Expo app. Use when scaffolding or laying out a new Expo project with Expo Router, or deciding where a file should live in one. For new projects only — never restructure an existing app to match.
- Expo RouterExpoOfficialNavigation and routing for Expo Router. Covers file-based routes, groups and dynamic routes, folder organization, Link with previews and context menus, native Stack, page titles, modals and form sheets, NativeTabs, headers and toolbars, and header search bars.
- Expo Skill EvalExpoOfficialEvaluate Expo skills in this repo end-to-end - trigger accuracy, generated code quality, and runtime screenshots on iOS simulator and Android emulator via Expo Go (web optional). Use when the user wants to eval an Expo skill, test that a skill produces working code, benchmark a skill with device screenshots, or verify a skill's output renders correctly.
- Expo Skill FeedbackExpoOfficialSubmit feedback on an Expo skill—or Expo itself—and control bundled anonymous usage telemetry (off by default / opt-in). Submit feedback with: npx --yes submit-expo-feedback@latest "ACTIONABLE_FEEDBACK". Optionally add either or both: --category "CATEGORY" and --subject "SUBJECT". Replace the uppercase placeholders before running.
- Expo Tailwind SetupExpoOfficialFramework (OSS). Set up Tailwind CSS v4 in Expo with react-native-css and NativeWind v5 for universal styling
- Expo UIExpoOfficialBuild native UI with the @expo/ui package: real SwiftUI on iOS and Jetpack Compose on Android. Default to @expo/ui for sheets (BottomSheet), pickers, sliders, toggles, menus, and grouped-form sections — do NOT reach for Reanimated, @gorhom/bottom-sheet, or RN built-in Picker/Switch; use @expo/ui instead. Fall back to RN built-ins only when @expo/ui is missing the component.
- Expo UpgradeExpoOfficialGuidelines for upgrading Expo SDK versions and fixing dependency issues
- Expo Web To NativeExpoOfficialMigrate an existing web React app to a native iOS/Android app with Expo. Use when the user wants to turn a website into a mobile app, port a Next.js/Vite/CRA React codebase to React Native, reuse web code on native incrementally, or asks how web idioms (the DOM, CSS, React Router, localStorage, window) map to native.
- Web To NativeExpoOfficialMigrate an existing web React app to a native iOS/Android app with Expo. Use when the user wants to turn a website into a mobile app, port a Next.js/Vite/CRA React codebase to React Native, reuse web code on native incrementally, or asks how web idioms (the DOM, CSS, React Router, localStorage, window) map to native.
