What would a dev do?
A few questions about what you're building, then the playbook a developer would reach for — and when to skip it.
A dev would reach for
React Native + Expo
One TypeScript codebase for iOS and Android when the app is mostly screens, lists, and forms.
Why this fits
- Expo can also target the web from the same code.
- Expo handles native builds and store delivery in the cloud.
Common trap
Dropping to bare React Native early — config plugins and prebuild cover most native needs.
Check this before you commit
Skip if the product depends on heavy custom rendering, sustained background processing, or bleeding-edge OS features on day one.
