12 AEO practices to make your documentation AI-ready — Expo blog

Expo's documentation team shares 12 concrete practices used on docs.expo.dev to make documentation readable and actionable by AI agents rather than human search engine crawlers. Practices include publishing an llms.txt file, serving Markdown via content negotiation, .md suffixes, and link hints, converting MDX components to Markdown, adding a corrections section for outdated LLM knowledge, using derived JSON-LD structured data (WebSite, BreadcrumbList, TechArticle, FAQPage, VideoObject), declaring Cloudflare's Content Signals Policy for AI training/input permissions, letting agents submit feedback on doc errors, linting docs with Vale, checking Lighthouse's new Agentic Browsing category and the AFDocs Agent Score, fixing hydration mismatches, and cleaning up the accessibility tree.
