javascript - 'expo' is not recognized as an internal or external command

Question

After running npm install -g expo-cli and successfully installing the packages globally, expo is still not recognized as an internal or external command. Does anyone know how I might get around this issue using windows 10, or what to do in terms of something like a path variable.

Answer 1

Probably the only thing missing is to add the expo executable to your path.

For Windows 10, you can simply add the npm folder to your path environment variable.

1. Hit Windows key and search for Environment variables.
2. Inside the Path variable under System variables, add a new entry (entries are separated by semicolons) with this content (without /node_modules ):

%USERPROFILE%AppDataRoaming pm

3. Open a new command prompt and enter

> expo

You will see something like this:
