Best way to start using ExpoKit with existing React Native project (no Expo)?

[howardwkim]

I have been developing a React Native app that never used Expo. I was hoping to get some advice on integrating ExpoKit into my existing project.

The FAQ (How do I get my existing React Native project running with Expo?) suggests that I create a new project using expo init and copying all my JS source code over. Can I then expo eject to add ExpoKit (as instructed in the Developing With ExpoKit docs)?

Thanks!

Hey @howardwkim,

Yeah, you would be able to eject after creating your expo init project, copying your JS over, adding the necessary fields (bundleIdentifier and package) in the app.json and then running expo eject.

Cheers,
