i’ve been trying material 3 expressive, but i’m still not a fan. not sure if it’s because of the color palette or because i’m too used to ios design language 🤔 not able to find one beautiful one from the list: 9to5google.com/2025/10/30/g...

I hope AI can verify the generated code itself without human back-and-forth. that’s how Expo MCP server began, and I’m excited to see more interesting ideas built on top of it.

my head was all about /mcp yesterday in my dream. probably there was some pressure to myself 😂

📢 @nishan.dev just landed a new @expo.dev module expo-glass-effect 🚀

Now that I’ve used pre compiled React Native on the Expo SDK 54 beta, I find myself very impatient with any project still building RN from source lol. Spoiled so fast.

@expo.dev config plugin for politely asking the phone to give your app more RAM

what does memory mean for ai? for large language models, it still mostly feels like language and text. but the kind of “experience” that turns a junior dev into a senior one—built over time, through mistakes—often can’t be captured in just words.

watching the app.js conf live stream recording today. i'm so excited to see expo/fetch being broadly used. thanks to @delphinebugner.bsky.social for bringing this great talk and the kind mention.

Exciting new packages while the AppJS is about to start 🔥 Learn more in the new Rocket Ship podcast episode.

I didn't build this, but I am a frequent contributor of adjectives to put in front of EAS Update terminology (see also "fuzzy runtime"). Soft fingerprinting was one of those very organic outputs of the continuous dialogue between our team and those using Updates at scale. Excited for this!

After 4 years of work, I'm incredibly excited to introduce LiveStore, the next-gen data layer I'm building for Overtone. It's based on reactive SQLite and has a built-in sync engine. Give it a try - would love your feedback!

will bring a few @expo.dev coasters there. excited to meet the community tonight.

AI programmer agents or whatever won’t work if they need people to actually review pull requests to land code safely. The secret is no one actually reviews pull requests. And no one really wants to. Reviews are an mostly an illusion so we look productive and responsible.

Debugging in React Native got easier today. We now have an official integration with @sentry.io so you can see errors and replays directly in your EAS Deployments. No more digging through logs or guessing at app state. 📖 expo.dev/blog/diagnos...

trying to act as a prompt engineer wasn’t so fun. the models have been unpredictable in different ways. think positive — it also brings more possibilities and new ideas.

📡 Building IoT provisioning flows in React Native? Vincent the CTO from @appandflow.com shows how to set up WiFi provisioning for an ESP32 using Expo + react-native-wifi-reborn. 👉 Companion apps, HTTPS, soft AP mode, and real code in this technical deep dive: expo.dev/blog/expo-io...

still thinking what to build in the @elevenlabs.io & @expo.dev meetup next friday in taipei. would try to be as much fun as possible. if you are around taipei next week, join us with the legendary @thorweb.dev

study a little bit of how lynxjs supporting css and seeing this github.com/lynx-family/.... the 3rd open source jsi v8 runtime 🤩

me dealing with swift protocol associated type is pretty much like c++ template deduction.

last week was rough, my lack of swift skills kept me hitting walls and staying up too late. with DST starting, I hope to adjust my schedule and fully appreciate the power of protocol-oriented programming

🖤❤️ RNR 321 is here! ❤️🖤 This week, @jamon.dev chats with @bacon.bsky.social from @expo.dev about DOM components in React Native – what they are, why they matter, and how they make migrating from web to native easier than ever. Listen 👇 reactnativeradio.com/episodes/rnr...

uniffi for react native is super interesting project. maybe it’s a good time for me to learn rust 🤩

Solving issues for KeyboardAvoidingView is like. Three different root causes so far 😞

Ridiculous Taiwanese food price. The range is wide 🤔

any React Native performance experts willing to lend a hand? i’ve been debugging feed scrolling perf on low-end Android for the past week but couldn’t make meaningful improvements. it’s very choppy on Galaxy A12, especially when scrolling past videos (but not exclusively). any help is appreciated!

Lucky to get 16K page size ready 🤩

Rebuilding jsc-android with NDK r24 is tough in 2024. Even the svn server is down 😑 Time to lean core for JSC !?

I used to share my favorites for each SDK release. For SDK 52: 🤩 DOM Components are a game-changer! They make migrating a website to a mobile app almost effortless. Pairing them with Expo Router for native navigation is a massive win.

Expo and React Native have been enormous enablers for us. If you’re building an app — especially a multi platform app — I strongly recommend that you put Expo/RN at the top of your list

The #1 app in the US is an Expo app

We've added a Starter Pack for our community just to help all the new 🦋 accounts find the influential React Native handles. We're definitely missing a lot of important people but it's a start: go.bsky.app/LYxHHxu
