Expo gluestack Setup

Use this skill to configure official gluestack-ui in an Expo or React Native project. It can run directly for an existing app, or as a specialist step inside a larger scaffold workflow such as expo-scaffold.

The volatile parts are gluestack CLI behavior, provider APIs, NativeWind compatibility, generated component structure, and package-manager side effects. Verify current official docs and tool output before locking command flags, paths, or verification criteria.

Trigger Boundaries

Use this skill only when one of these is true:

• The user explicitly asks to add, configure, set up, install, repair, or verify gluestack-ui in an existing project.
• The user directly names expo-gluestack-setup.
• expo-scaffold or another new-project scaffold workflow invokes it for a gluestack setup handoff.

Do not use this skill merely because a message mentions gluestack, NativeWind, Expo, a startup failure, dark mode, or a previous scaffold report. For explanation, review, or debugging requests, answer normally unless the user asks you to modify the project’s gluestack setup or directly use this skill.
