A minimal starter for a universal Expo + Next.js app with their respective app routers.
It's a good starting point if you want to:
- ✅ make use of app-dir file based routing in expo and next.js
- ✅ have a minimal monorepo setup with Typescript but no monorepo tool yet
- ✅ leave all other tech choices for e.g. styling, dbs, component libs, etc. up to you
This template repo is the result of a frequent exercise where I attempt to recreate Aetherspace from scratch. I usually do this using the latest recommended expo + next.js starter from the Expo docs. This helps me see whether the setup and config for aetherspace can be simplified. Also handy to notice where issues occur and how to fix them.
npm installnpm run devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see your Next.js 14 app on web.
Install and/or open the Expo Go app on your phone and scan the QR code to test your Expo SDK 50 app on mobile.
All docs for this basic Universal Starter can be found at universal-base-starter-docs.vercel.app

Our main recommendation for a more opinionated, more automated and extensible Universal Expo + Next.js starter to move fast and build things will always be Aetherspace 👇
