I work for Infinite Red (leading RN consultancy), and we have really bought into Expo in full force in the past year or so. The addition of EAS, and prebuild with config plugins has completely changed the game and for us and all but eliminated the need to ever do bare workflow anymore.

Things we love about the expo ecosystem

- React Native upgrades are much less painful if you use prebuild. Upgrading the expo SDK takes care of most things for you

- EAS makes distributing and managing certs incredibly easy

- Most expo packages (like expo-camera, etc) are some of the best out there and very well documented and supported

- The Expo team is incredibly talented and always willing to help if issues arise.
