expo-animation | Build 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. Use when animating anything in an Expo app, adding gestures, sheets, screen transitions, press feedback or haptics, or fixing motion that stutters on device. For web animation use animate. |
expo-app-clip | Add 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-brownfield | Integrate Expo and React Native into an existing native iOS or Android app. Use when the user mentions brownfield, embedding React Native in a native app, AAR/XCFramework, or adding Expo to an existing Kotlin/Swift project. Covers both the isolated approach and the integrated approach. |
expo-data-fetching | Use when implementing or debugging ANY network request, API call, or data fetching. Covers fetch API, React Query, SWR, error handling, caching, offline support, and Expo Router data loaders (useLoaderData). |
expo-design-system | Build 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. Use when creating or organizing theme files and design tokens (theme.ts / theme/), extending an existing theme or styling library (NativeWind, Tamagui, Restyle, Unistyles) in its own idiom, standardizing styles so screens (including AI-generated ones) look consistent and polished, building an in-app component library, or auditing an app for design-system drift (hardcoded colors, spacing, fonts). For platform styling specifics (semantic colors, HIG rules, native controls) use expo-native-ui; for folder layout of a new app use expo-project-structure. |
expo-dev-client | Build 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-dom | Use 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-examples | Expo'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-module | Guide 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. Not for migrating an existing Swift module from the definition DSL to the Expo Modules API 2.0 macros; use expo-migrate-module (from the expo-experiments plugin) for that. |
expo-native-ui | Build 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. |
expo-overview | Entry 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. Within that gate it also covers app specs and designs to implement (tabs, stacks, maps, lists, navigation, building from a screenshot), and phrasings like 'implement a mobile app', 'make my app look native', 'add navigation', 'fetch some data', 'upgrade my SDK', 'add Expo to my existing native app', 'ship to the App Store', or 'I'm new to Expo, where do I start'. A fully specified request (SDK pinned, libraries named, layout given) still routes through here — the shared setup rules still apply. Do NOT load it when neither signal is present: a bare React Native project with no expo dependency is not Expo work. Detects the real goal, routes to the right expo-* / eas-* skill, and owns the shared setup rules. |
expo-project-structure | Folder 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-router | Navigation 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-feedback | Submit 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. Use when a skill was useful, confusing, broken, missing context, or worth improving; when Expo, Expo CLI, EAS CLI, docs, or MCP worked well or fell short; when an AI agent repeatedly failed, got stuck, or needed the user to take over an Expo task (report it as an eval candidate); or when the user explicitly asks to enable or disable telemetry (tracking), check its status, or understand what it collects. |
expo-ui | Build 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. NOTE: @expo/ui List renders native grouped rows like an iOS Settings screen — it is NOT a virtualized list; use FlatList/FlashList for large datasets. Covers universal components (Host, Column, Row, Button, Text, List, BottomSheet, FieldGroup, Switch, Slider, Picker, Menu), drop-in replacements for RN community libraries, and platform-specific SwiftUI/Jetpack Compose trees. Not for Expo Router navigation, Reanimated, or data fetching. |
expo-upgrade | Guidelines for upgrading Expo SDK versions and fixing dependency issues. |
expo-web-to-native | Migrate 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. This is the end-to-end migration guide; use the expo-dom skill for the DOM-component mechanism itself. |
