FAQ

Can I use this with an existing Next.js project?

Yes. Migrate your routes into the app router and point Expo to the shared API contracts; the starter keeps web/native parity.

Does it support TypeScript?

Yes. TS-first with linting and formatting defaults that match the repo’s tooling.

How do I add my backend?

Keep Convex (included) or point the API helpers to your own endpoints; env loading and client helpers are already set up.
