How would you like to eject your app?
Bare: I'd like a bare React Native project. ExpoKit: I'll create or log in with an Expo account to use React Native and the Expo SDK. Cancel: I'll continue with my current project structure.
What is the difference between ExpoKit and Bare?
What are the advantage and disadvantage on choosing this?

A bare React Native app is a project where developers make direct changes to their native ios and android project directories rather than continuously generating them on demand using the Expo config (app. json) and prebuild.
After you eject, all your JS files will stay the same, but we'll additionally create ios and android directories in your project folder. These will contain Xcode and Android Studio projects respectively, and they'll have dependencies on React Native and on Expo's core SDK.
Ejecting your React Native expo project You can eject expo running the command npm run eject on the console. Make sure you'll choose the option React Native: I'd like a regular React Native project and then rename your project accordingly.
Developing with Expo Go appYou can still use the Expo Go app after the eject.
The two ways to use Expo tools are called the "managed" and "bare" workflows.
Apps are built with the managed workflow using the expo-cli, the Expo client on your mobile device, and expo various services: push notifications, the build service, and over-the-air (OTA) updates. Expo tries to manage as much of the complexity of building apps for you as they can.
This is workflow where you use some of the Expo tools in a vanilla React Native app. Unlike in the managed workflow where you don't touch the underlying native code directly, in this workflow the developer has complete control, along with the complexity that comes with that.
ExpoKit is another way to use Expo tools in a vanilla React Native app. The problem with ExpoKit is it is, compared to the "bare workflow", very monolithic — you essentially include the entire runtime from the Expo "managed workflow" in your app, rather than only the pieces of it that you want
