The Expo MCP Server is now available to everyone.
Anyone with an Expo account can connect an AI coding assistant to Expo docs and tools. We see devs using it for a lot of stuff, but here are a couple examples:
◆ Pulling official Expo docs and SDK guidance into the editor
◆ Inspecting Build status, workflow runs, logs, and TestFlight crashes
◆ Driving a local simulator to take screenshots, tap through flows, and collect logs

Expo is everywhere this year.
We want to be close to our users and our users are all over the world. So now we are too.
This week that means we're hosting/attending events in:
• London
• Prague
• Helsinki
The Helsinki event is an existing React Native meetup where @tchayen will take the stage to talk about building apps with Expo & AI: https://t.co/b22b2xblo9
