Expo Router
Expo recently announced an experimental new routing system which lets you use file-system based routing in native apps. The API is very Next.js- and Remix-esque. I view it as the future of cross-platform routing.
To use Solito with Expo Router, you'll need to follow their Getting Started guide. These steps should be done inside of apps/expo
in your Solito project.
Once those steps are done, you're good to go. You can create files inside of apps/expo/app
to use file system routing on iOS and Android. Solito's useLink
hook and Link
component will work like always.
Starter app​
Run this from the terminal to get a Solito + Expo Router project.
sh
npx create-solito-app@latest with-expo-router
sh
npx create-solito-app@latest with-expo-router
In an existing app​
To use Solito in an existing Solito project, you'll have to remove the Navigation
provider from packages/app/providers/index.tsx
. Expo Router will provide this context for you, reducing boilerplate.
