Documentation for AI agents and LLMs

Edit page

Efficient ways for AI agents and LLMs to access and consume Expo documentation.


Use the following endpoints and tools to give AI agents and LLMs access to Expo documentation at lower token cost than fetching full web pages.

Quick start

Pick the method that matches your tool:

MethodBest forHow
Per-page markdownChat interfaces (ChatGPT, Claude.ai) and coding agentsAppend /index.md to any documentation page URL.
Copy Markdown dropdownQuick prompts with a single pageClick Copy page > Copy Markdown at the top of any documentation page.
Section bundlesProject rules and coding agentsAdd a section-level llms-*.txt URL to your AI tool configuration or the general-purpose index (/llms.txt).

Per-page markdown

Every documentation page has a lightweight markdown version accessible by appending /index.md to the page URL. For example:

Create a development build on EAS
https://documentation.expo.dev/develop/development-builds/create-a-build/index.md

The above method is useful when you want to give an AI agent context about a specific topic or page without overwhelming it with the full HTML of that page.

Documentation bundles

At Expo, we support the llms.txt initiative to provide documentation for large language models (LLMs) and apps that use them. Below is a list of documentation files available.
