Can I use CRNA or Expo with Firebase Cloud Messaging? If so, how? The Firebase JS lib ? Looks like I can but how to make push notification work?

or ExpoKit with Firebase Android/IOS lib?

Thanks!

First result for "expo and firebase": docs.expo.io/versions/latest/guides/using-firebase.html - please search before asking. – Andrew Li
I have refined my question, thanks. – Henry
No, Expo doesn't support notifications. You'll have to eject. – Andrew Li

If you need to use the full Firebase SDK, with Firebase Analytics, Firebase (rather than Expo) Push Notifications, Firebase Crash Reporting, and Firebase Links, you will need to eject for the foreseeable future
