# Expo Native UI Guidelines

For routes, links, stacks, tabs, modals, sheets, and headers, use the `expo-router` skill. For any motion — entering/exiting, gestures, springs, keyboard-driven UI — use the `expo-animation` skill.

> **Before picking any UI component, check `expo-ui` first.** `@expo/ui` provides native equivalents — BottomSheet, Button, Picker, Slider, Menu, Section, Switch, SegmentedControl, and more — rendered as real SwiftUI on iOS and Jetpack Compose on Android, available in Expo Go on SDK 56+ with no custom build. Load the **`expo-ui`** skill to find the right component before falling back to React Native built-ins or community libraries. This skill (`expo-native-ui`) covers the surrounding structure: Expo Router navigation, layout, styling, and visual effects.
