I'm really struggling to work with the Expo Router from Expo SDK 51. It would be nice to have a video that goes deep into it. I don't understand how to make stack navigations inside a tab or how to use a shared view. It's really complicated!

[JayeshSaini]

Notifications and deep linking please . Also how the login can be handled in deep link process

[fabsync]

it is looking pretty promising!! I would love to see something on the new expo router and components for mobile and web!

I am worried about upgrading to SDK51, I've read a lot of articles where APPs stop working ... should I be worried or just go for it?

[DanielKEMBEU]

This means that, in the expo-router package's explanation, that "canDismiss" new method, is it like the one used in Angular to apply guards on pages directly without creating a custom context for that ? If it's the case, i'll be really awesome !!

[ELHAUKEZ]

wanna hear about all packages and ways to build stuff in expo. Please because good info is always scarce on the topic

Hi Simon, in my project I've got a product details screen page. Since I've upgraded sdk to 51, a warning appears. It says "TNodeRendererChildren: Support for defaultProps will be removed from function components in a future major release. Use javascript default parameters instead". How can I solve it before I go crazy?

I m doing a project that uses 49 sdk and i was using the Expo go app to test and now I can’t. What is best that I should do, should I leave it at the sdk 49? I didn’t use Expo Orbit before or development builds so I would appreciate some advice what I should do to continue to finish my app.

[dileepparmar]

[quakerparrotandlovebirds]

How do you do to have a complete block of code when you just start typing?

[kararhassan]

guys, how you resolved ui-kitten libraries with default proptypes deprecated in expo 51?, :/

[jrhager]

Man - Years ago RN Cli was the way to go. With all of these really nice features, I may actually switch. Can you still add custom code in XCode/Android Studio without Expo complaining?

[BrainSpecialist]

I really want to upgrade to 51 but the latest Reanimated version has serious performance issues, I had to roll back Reanimated and the only way I could do that was by rolling back Expo to 50.

[Xcalate-pdkj]

Interested. Please do a deep dive. Let us see how to use video for splashscreen too.

[Canodep]

I have an app that uses background location with task manager and it works well in sdk 49 but not in sdk 51. The logs says that the task is registered but the task does not execute.
Has someone the same issue?

Thanks!

[danxayota]

it would be great if you make a video on how to setup react native on linux for a local build

[MOBORGI]

Why project with 50 not working easy with 51 😢😢😢
