Keynote
summary
Expo demonstrates end-to-end iteration: development builds that include your app icon and credentials, cloud EAS builds with cached workers that cut initial build times to about two minutes, and CI features that publish JavaScript updates per commit and provide incremental rollouts and one-command rollbacks. SDK 51 ships with ~996 modules and bridgeless support; Orbit desktop, a GitHub app for PR previews, and Expo Fingerprint to auto-manage runtime versions make continuous deployment for native apps practical today.
