How do I know if a third party library will work with Expo?

Expo is great. One of it's goals is to use only javascript to write React Native apps.

How do you determine if a third party React Native library will work in the Expo development environment?

The simplest approach is to look at the install instructions of the library.
If react-native link is mentioned then it won't work with Expo.

You can run any library by Detaching to ExpoKit but you will lose some of the benefits of using Expo in the first place.
