React Native 0.71 makes significant changes to the app delegate, using RCTAppDelegate rather than RCTBridgeDelegate. (See the attached diff.)
This means that presumably Expo 48 will support the new version of the underlying SDK in the bare workflow?

tl;dr: From React Native 0.71, you will consume prebuilt artifacts on Android (and iOS to some degree) coming from Maven Central. This brings huge improvements in terms of build time for the New Architecture (and not only, keep on reading!)

expo@47.0.13 added support for react-native@0.71, however the recommended version for this sdk is still 0.70 and it is the only version that will work in expo go. you can however use expo modules in any react-native 0.71 app. https://twitter.com/expo/status/1613599423531208704

Try out 0.71.0 now!
For React Native CLI users, see the upgrade documentation for how to update your existing project, or create a new project with npx react-native init MyProject.
