Introducing: Expo Run Commands
May 28, 2021 - The run commands integrate with dev client to provide an experience that is very similar to Expo Go: when you run a debug build of a project with dev client installed, Expo CLI will launch directly into the project within the client, and it will also make it available under the βRecently in developmentβ section of the app for easy access from other devices already running the client.

Before this change, there was no way to run commands like expo run <platform> -d "/path/to/my_app". The args parsing rightfully assumed the path to be the device name. Using --allows to run commands like that.

March 9, 2024 -
Hi guys, Expo is a bit confusing for me. How do I initiate a new project? RN doc says that I should use yarn create expo-app AwesomeProject whereas the Expo doc says I should use create expo-app AwesomeProject
Another question, how do I initiate a new project with a specific RN version? This is how we do it in bare RN: npx [email protected] init AwesomeProject --version X.XX.X

yarn create x is like npx create-x. For versions of RN, read the release notes of each SDK. Then pass in --template blank@50 for example.
