This year, for Giving Tuesday, I supported NOLA_CODE, a nonprofit empowering underserved youth in Nola through tech education. It’s a cause I deeply care about, and I’d love for you to join me in making a difference. Even a few dollars can help them reach their goal! nolacode.org/unlock-nolas... 🙏

It's that native feel! But... Restoring scroll is not free or a native feature (at least not afaik on Android). Personally it works for me on Bluesky fwiw. Icons are generally a design choice and same across mobile/web. Seems almost impossible to match the OS theme icons in an app.

I finally got around to trying out a fresh @expo.dev 52 project with swmansion's Radon IDE. What a delight to see it break right there in the IDE. 🚀✨🚀 Next need to use the preview feature - reminds me of Compose Preview on Android.

When I started building a universal RN app, I didn't expect to go deep on tanstack table and forms (react ts form / react hook form and zod) but tables and forms are at the core of this product. 😊🚀
