Expo CLI is a command-line interface tool that simplifies the development and deployment of mobile applications built with React Native. It provides a set of commands to create, build, and manage React Native projects without the need for complex configurations. Expo CLI offers features like live reloading, over-the-air updates, and access to native device APIs through Expo SDK.

Compared to the React Native CLI, Expo CLI abstracts away the native build process, making it easier for developers to get started with mobile app development. It also provides a managed workflow that handles common tasks like building and publishing apps, allowing developers to focus on building the app itself.
