React Native team says "Use Expo"

The React Conf suggests using a React Native framework like Expo for app development, offering essential APIs for navigation, data fetching, and state management. Expo simplifies upgrades and tooling, while custom frameworks are an option. The React Native team endorses Expo as the primary community framework, with support for using React Native without a framework. The guidance is reflected in the updated Getting Started page, and a detailed RFC0759 explains the rationale and potential future recommendations for fostering competition and innovation in the React Native ecosystem.

Nice work on the launch, rudolfs! any chance this is inspired by shipfa.st?

One thing that caught my eye is that you're using expo - how do you handle the tradeoff between expo's ease of use and its potential limitations? do you have any plans to support non-expo react native projects in the future?

And have you used flutter? I've used both rn and flutter, and i found flutter to offer much superior dx

When click "get ExpoShip" on the homepage and put my email address in I get an email saying "follow this link to confirm your user". When I click that link, it takes me to a page that says "You don't have access to this page To get access to this page make a purchase first".

Same thing if I sign in with github.

Looks nice, congrats on the launch.

After building an app from scratch, I see the value in a nice starter template.

expoship.dev's design is a copy of shipfa.st

That's not cool.
