# Expo Integration

> Integrate Expo with your Michelangelo projects

Michelangelo projects are designed to work naturally with the Expo ecosystem, making it easy to preview, build, and distribute your app.

## What Expo Provides

Expo offers a suite of tools for developing and shipping mobile apps, including preview clients, build services, and over-the-air updates. A Michelangelo project can be opened in Expo Go or exported for a standalone build.

## Envisioned Workflow

After exporting your project to GitHub, you will be able to open it with Expo tools, run it on a device, and build it for distribution. This gives you a familiar path from prototype to published app.

## Benefits

* Preview on real devices quickly.
* Build and submit without managing native tooling.
* Deliver updates to users over the air.

<Info>
  Expo integration is available today through GitHub export. Deeper in-app Expo workflows are planned for the future.
