What this skill does


# Expo Patterns

Comprehensive skill for building production mobile apps with Expo and React Native.

## Overview

Expo provides managed workflow for React Native development:

- Simplified native module configuration
- EAS Build for cloud-based app building
- OTA updates with expo-updates
- Push notifications with expo-notifications
- Cross-platform APIs for camera, location, etc.

## Use When

This skill is automatically invoked when:

- Initializing new Expo/React Native projects
- Configuring native features (camera, location, notifications)
- Setting up EAS Build for iOS/Android
- Managing app signing and certificates
- Implementing OTA updates

## Security: Credentials

**CRITICAL:** Never commit signing credentials

❌ NEVER commit: `.p12`, `.mobileprovision`, keystore files
✅ ALWAYS use: `eas secret:create` for sensitive values
✅ ALWAYS add to `.gitignore`: `*.jks`, `*.p12`, `*.mobileprovision`

## Available Scripts

| Script                           | Description                                 |
| -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| `scripts/init-expo-project.sh`   | Initialize new Expo project with TypeScript |
| `scripts/setup-eas-build.sh`     | Configure EAS Build profiles                |
| `scripts/setup-notifications.sh` | Set up push notifications                   |

## Available Templates

| Template                | Description                    |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| `templates/app.json`    | Expo app configuration         |
| `templates/eas.json`    | EAS Build configuration        |
| `templates/env.example` | Environment variables template |

## CLI Commands

```bash
# Create new project
npx create-expo-app my-app --template tabs

# EAS Build
eas build --platform ios --profile development
eas build --platform android --profile preview

# Submit to stores
eas submit --platform ios
eas submit --platform android
```

## Best Practices

1. Use expo-router for file-based routing
2. Use expo-secure-store for tokens
3. Set up EAS Build for consistent builds
4. Implement OTA updates for quick fixes

generating-lwc-components

Included

Lightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.

tanstack-query

Included

Manage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.

document-processor-api

Included

Process documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
