Expo SDK 56 brings major updates including Expo UI reaching production stability with Jetpack Compose and SwiftUI support added to the default app template. Key highlights include: inline modules allowing native Kotlin/Swift code directly in the project structure, drop-in replacements for popular community packages (datetime picker, slider, bottom sheet, etc.), precompiled packages for faster builds, iOS widgets promoted to stable, and Expo Router decoupling from React Navigation. The release also bundles React Native 0.85 and React 19.2, with Hermes V1 as the default JS engine. A new `useNativeState` hook improves form input performance by bypassing the JS thread. iOS deployment target bumps to 16.4.
