Build front end with Expo and React Native

Did you maybe attempt to build front end with Expo like in this example: https://gluestack.io/ui/docs/apps/dashboard-app

I found lots of useful information in this reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/reactnative/comments/10i2iz4/anyone_using_reactnativeweb_in_production/

Clearly there are differences and one should use React Native Web instead of React Native but overall it seems to be possible.

Obviously thinking if it would be possible to use Laravel / React Native Web / React Native / Expo / Gluestack to build for Web, iOS and Android at the same time which would be a huge selling point.

Thanks for your input!

Hi @aurawindsurfing I'm actually building a component library based on react-native-paper, which attempts to compile to the 3 platforms from one codebase using Expo. In order for you to use it with Laravel right now I would suggest you use Laravel API for your backend and React Native with Expo to get to those 3 platforms with ease in the frontend.
