body: <p>I started with:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>Installing Node.js on my Windows 10 System (I installed v12.18.3)</li>
  <li>Then I ran command: npm i -g expo-cli
  to install expo on my system</li>
  <li>Next I ran expo init demoProject</li>
  <li>Next I changed directory into the demoProject (C:\Users\vridd&gt;cd DoneWithIt)</li>
  <li>Next I used command code . to start Visual Studio and in the terminal in VS Code, I ran npm start</li>
