```shell
yarn create expo-app --template @solana-mobile/solana-mobile-expo-template
```

## Overview

This will initialize a new project using the [Expo](https://expo.dev) framework
that is specifically designed for creating mobile applications that interact
with the Solana blockchain.

Follow this template's guide for
"[Running the app](https://docs.solanamobile.com/react-native/expo#running-the-app)"
in order to launch the template as a custom development build and get it running
on your Android emulator. Once you have built the program and are running a dev
client with Expo, the emulator will automatically update every time you save
your code.
