⛵ One upgrade. Nine React Native versions. From red herrings to native config purgatory — this journey has it all. Real-world errors. Unexpected twists. Hard-earned lessons. And a battle-tested checklist at the end. ⚔️ New post by Dan Edwards 👇 shift.infinite.red/sirens-sagas...

It's official, I'm headed to Appjs again this year. Let's meet up!
