Breaking through the Browser Barrier (With Expo)

With over 1.13 billion websites worldwide, itʼs clear that cross-platform development is popular. However, with 60.74% of people preferring mobile devices over desktops for internet access, providing a polished UX can be challenging when using only websites.
In this talk, Iʼll demonstrate how developers can use Expo to bring their web-only products closer to their users. Starting with a fictional web-only product, Iʼll incrementally reuse the code and run it on iOS and Android using both the existing web code and platform-native elements. Depending on our demo readiness during the conference, this may include a new experimental feature of the Expo Router called DOM Routes that helps developers in this process.
