Expo Design System
Build and maintain a design system inside an Expo app - a reusable theme of design tokens (color, spacing, typography, radius, shadow, motion), reusable component structure with variant/size/state prop conventions, and rules for when to extract a repeated view into a shared component. Use when creating or organizing theme files and design tokens (theme.ts / theme/), extending an existing theme or styling library (NativeWind, Tamagui, Restyle, Unistyles) in its own idiom, standardizing styles so screens (including AI-generated ones) look consistent and polished, fixing an app that looks AI-generated or generic instead of native (the named native-slop tells), building an in-app component library, or auditing an app for design-system drift (hardcoded colors, spacing, fonts). For platform styling specifics (semantic colors, HIG rules, native controls) use expo-native-ui; for folder layout of a new app use expo-project-structure.

From the source SKILL.md
Make every screen in an app draw from one visual source of truth: a token theme and a small set of reusable components. This skill defines where tokens live, what they cover, how reusable components are shaped, and when a repeated view earns promotion into the system.
What this skill does
Expo Design System is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the design-system-ui sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/expo-design-system/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
