New updates and improvements to Expo and EAS.

Welcome to Expo Router v3, our most powerful release yet! Today we're introducing beta support for the newest Expo platform: Servers. With this, Expo Router is now the first universal, full-stack React framework!

  • API Routes (beta): Build universal server endpoints for your app and website.
  • Bundle splitting (web): Route-based bundle splitting on web for faster page loads.
  • Speed improvements: 2x faster static web builds, 30% smaller base JS bundle, added .mjs support.
  • Testing library: You can now test and reproduce complex navigation flows with Jest.
  • Web <Link /> props: Configure and style <Link /> components with the new target, push, and className props.

Get started with Expo Router v3 today in one line:

Terminal
npx create-expo-app@latest -t tabs@50

If you're new here, Expo Router uses a file-based approach to app development which enables you to build more powerful apps than ever before, with less boilerplate code. The key features so far have been autocomplete and type safety for navigation, SEO and accessibility for web, automatic universal linking, lazy bundling, and more!

Expo 2023: The year in review

Expo's year in review

2023 began with some audacious goals. We made a long list of new features and capabilities to build. Our goal, in general terms, was to make Expo a more helpful part of developer workflows.

In our all-hands last Thursday our CEO, Charlie Cheever, pulled up that original list and ran through the startling number of new features and capabilities we shipped. There were a few misses for sure. But not many. Our progress in 2023 is something we’re all proud of. And as a result of our work it’s now easier than ever to create and maintain a universal app with your team.

It’s instinctual to want to keep our momentum and run right through the holidays with our eyes on the horizon. And while we’re excited about what the future holds (starting with SDK 50 in January!), let’s take a moment to appreciate some of the highlights from 2023.
