| You can also use React Native without a Framework, however we’ve found that most developers benefit from using a React Native Framework like [Expo](https://expo.dev). Expo provides features like file-based routing, high-quality universal libraries, and the ability to write plugins that modify native code without having to manage native files. | ||

| **If you are already familiar with mobile development**, you may want to use React Native CLI. It requires Xcode or Android Studio to get started. If you already have one of these tools installed, you should be able to get up and running within a few minutes. If they are not installed, you should expect to spend about an hour installing and configuring them. | ||

Perhaps we could remove "You can also use React Native without a Framework, however " in the next paragraph, and so it would read like:
We believe that the best way to experience React Native is through a **Framework**, a toolbox with all the necessaries APIs to let you build production ready apps.

Starting with "Yes" might lend a little clarity, for instance, "Yes, but we believe the best way..."
