I had a lot of moments reconsidering life choices or just raising alpacas instead of migrating, but it’s finally done. New architecture, @expo.dev SDK 53 (RN 0.79.1), and the fastest React Native app we’ve ever built (and I’ve ever seen!). Thanks to all contributors. Amazing achievement.

I was exploring a hard to debug memory leak in react native for at least 6 hours today. Turns out that when you don't add accessibilityLabel to RectButton or Pressable, it will fucking traverse all children to find a Text node or View with accessibilityLabel. This is insane. 1/4

Hey @samuel.bsky.team and @danabra.mov and @tazsingh.com and @mojavad.bsky.social. @peterp.bsky.social is in London for a few weeks. Super smart and humble guy. He also worked with @hailey.at on new arch for Bluesky. Y’all should definitely meet! Lots of synergy!

@samuel.bsky.team worth a try, no? github.com/Expensify/Ap... github.com/facebook/rea...

Does any @react.dev know why const Text = forwardRef((props, ref) => { return createElement('RCTText', { ...props, ref }) }) as ComponentType<TextProps> is causing There was an error during concurrent rendering but React was able to recover by instead synchronously rendering the entire root.]

The 5th edition of our React Native & @expo.dev- focused conf is coming closer and we're now accepting talks proposals! 🚨 If you have an interesting perspective on RN hot topics or you've come up with a solution for a common pain point & want to share your insights -> apply at appjs.co

Am I taking it too far with @swmansion.com CSS animations? It’s so fun. I am definitely pushing the limits with this example. I love REA v4. Such an amazing beta release. Mark my words: pretty sure this example will run at 60fps soon! Gist: gist.github.com/hirbod/48e45...

Runs on @expo.dev custom dev client and @swmansion.com Reanimated v4 CSS Animations. Was 5 min initial work and a few minutes to understand sync measurement with Fabric :D If you want to play with it: gist.github.com/hirbod/dc161... The future is React Native.

RIP to our beloved companion. The last six months have been incredibly difficult for our family, and now we have lost another family member. We will always cherish the memories and unconditional love you gave us. You’ll forever be in our hearts.

Imagine we used to write animations like this. @swmansion.com has come a long way.

This is the most important update to Reanimated since worklets. Really proud of the team 🐎

Congrats to swm on this release. Makes great animations in RN so much more accessible to people coming from a web development background.
