From Idea to App: Building Developer-First Mobile Products with Kadi Kraman (Expo)

​Building mobile apps used to mean double the work: separate codebases, tools, and teams for iOS and Android.

​With React Native, you build once and ship everywhere. Expo removes the native tooling complexity entirely — no Xcode, no Android Studio, just code and instant feedback on real devices. Pair that with Strapi, an open-source headless CMS that gives you APIs, auth, and content management out of the box, and you have a powerful, modern stack for mobile and web apps.

​Join us for a live chat with Kadi Kraman, Engineering Manager at Expo on the Developer Success team, to talk about what it takes to build fast, scalable, and developer-friendly mobile products today.

​We’ll cover:

• ​Why Expo is the fastest way to go from idea to working app

• ​How React Native enables true cross-platform development

• ​How Strapi fits as the backend for content, APIs, and auth

• ​A preview of what’s next at Expo, including potential insights on a new project Kadi is working on!

​Perfect for teams who care about developer experience, speed, and shipping better products
