Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning

Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

🦉 Directory Traversal

[snyk-io]

This major upgrade to Expo SDK 53 introduces significant architectural changes, most notably enabling the React Native New Architecture (Fabric) by default. This requires thorough testing as it can affect third-party native modules. The update also includes React 19 and requires newer versions of Node.js and Xcode.

Highlights:

• New Architecture Enabled by Default: Existing projects will be migrated automatically. This is a major change that may break compatibility with native modules. You can temporarily opt-out to manage the migration in stages.
• Dependency & Environment Upgrades: The upgrade requires Node.js 20+ and Xcode 16.2+. It also bundles React 19 and React Native 0.79, which have their own breaking changes.

Source: Expo documentation
Recommendation: Backup your project before upgrading. Run npx expo-doctor after upgrading to identify issues. Thoroughly test all functionalities, paying close attention to native modules and authentication flows. If you encounter issues, consider opting out of the New Architecture temporarily.
