Imagine building a mobile app where your folders become your screens and your files become your routes.
Welcome to Video #9 of the AI Mobile Engineer Bootcamp 2026 by The Techzeen.
Today we introduce Expo Router and learn how file-based routing makes navigation in React Native apps cleaner, simpler and easier to scale.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
* Problems with traditional navigation
* What is routing?
* What is file-based routing?
* How files and folders become routes
* What is Expo Router?
* Why Expo Router is useful for modern Expo apps
* How Expo Router works with React Navigation
* Installing and setting up Expo Router
* Building our first multi-screen navigation
FILE-BASED ROUTING:
app/
├── index.tsx → /
├── profile.tsx → /profile
└── settings.tsx → /settings
HANDS-ON:
We set up Expo Router in our existing Expo app, create multiple screens and implement simple navigation using file-based routing.
By the end, you'll understand how your project structure can become your navigation system.
