solito VS expo

I've been building for the past 3-4 months on the Solito starter repo that uses React Native to build the shared components that are used by both Next.JS for web and Expo for mobile. This theoretically should be harder/longer to build than one of these alone, but easier/shorter than building both separate projects. Has anyone built this kind of monorepo to completion/production before and can share this experience? Am I on the right path and this is a hump during the package configuration phase or would I be better off just using React and constantly maintaining two codebases that have to match feature parity?

I think this is what you are looking for: https://solito.dev/ 😊

We're encountering an issues on the web side while trying to run React Native Skia in NextJS as part of a Solito monorepo. Mobile (Expo) seems to work fine, but the "warning" Skia throws of not finding reanimated is causing Next.js builds to error out with the following error:

I’ve only just started using it but https://solito.dev/ seems to do exactly that.

I found Solito and see that it may perhaps support react-native-macos - does anyone have experience here?

It has become very practical / doable in the recent year or so. In my experience, if you have lot of frontend web experience, the easiest way to ship a RN app is by using Solito [0]. Also check out Nativewind [1] which allows you to style native apps the same way like you would on web. I was able to ship the first version of our app in about 1.5 weeks with this stack. Also checkout Tamagui [2].

Solito 4 - https://github.com/nandorojo/solito/releases/tag/v4.0.0

Another option is the Solito stack which has a single code base for react native and next js. https://solito.dev/

The [Expo docs for NextJS](https://docs.expo.dev/guides/using-nextjs/) recommends @expo/next-adapter, while I have a sense of what [Solito](https://github.com/nandorojo/solito) does as [explained by the author](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1gSWXA3qfw). I'm not fully clear what the difference these two libraries are and whether they can or should be used together.

I am using expo setup with tabs template.

Before we begin working on our project, we must set it up and install all the necessary dependencies. We will be using Expo for this project. Expo is a React Native management tool that handles a lot of heavy stuff for us, such as efficiently compiling code and assets, as well as provides us with a productive development environment. Also we will be using Typescript for this project, but don't worry, the process is practically identical to Javascript, so if you don't know Typescript that's fine. This article assumes some basic understanding of React and React Native , such as components, hooks and state. You must also have Node.js installed on your computer.

Expo saves us from the complex configurations required to create a native application with the React Native CLI, making it the easiest and fastest way to build and publish React Native apps.

- Try to unblock usage of Google Maps in my ReactNative Android, iOS and Web App. Context: "https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/23347#issuecomment-16264...

- Provide financial report to investors (this will likely take at least two blocks)

- Fix initial Zoom setting for Google Maps in my app for web. Context: https://github.com/teovillanueva/react-native-web-maps/issue...

- Check on analytics + user enqueries and write (back) to at least 3 of our most active users in the last couple of days

Timeblock exhausted. Posting this and jumping on first task from above.

But some bugs don't get fixed for years. E.g. there was an issue with expo-secure-store not working well on android after app reinstallatiins. It apparently got fixed now 5 years after it was reported: expo-secure-store bug
