Expo Router v6: A new era of native feel for React developers
Blog post from Expo
Expo Router v6 introduces features designed to enhance the native feel of apps developed with React, focusing on complex native APIs and server capabilities to manage advanced web use cases. Notable additions include <Link.Preview> and <Link.Menu> for iOS apps, enabling intuitive controls like link previews and context menus without extra imports, delivering a native-like experience. The update also introduces NativeTabs, currently in beta, which promise improved control and responsiveness for iOS and Android, leaning towards native implementations over universal TypeScript. There's an emphasis on using platform-specific icons and colors for a seamless aesthetic. Additionally, the release features experimental web modals replicating iOS modal behavior, and server middleware support aimed at future server-side rendering (SSR) capabilities. The update also highlights performance improvements, better error handling, and reduced warnings, ensuring that apps built with Expo Router v6 are both visually appealing and functionally robust across multiple platforms.
