πŸš€ Galactic News: Local-First, Drizzle SQLite and Expo Live


Hey Reader,

Offline-First is a topic every React Native developer has on the bingo card of 2024 - and now I've created a practical tutorial in combination with PowerSync and Supabase!

Behind the scenes I'm wrapping up the new styling course, started work on another big clone (Trello πŸ‘€) and think about new projects for our Launch Pad πŸš€

If there is anything you want to see in a course or project, hit reply and let me know. I'm always just an email away πŸ‘‹

Happy Coding,
Simon✌️

  3. ​Drizzle Studio for Expo SQLite (Repository)
    It's great to see modern tools like Drizzle offer React Native support, and now they also work on a dev tool plugin - keep an πŸ‘€ on this.
  4. ​React Native Security Guide (Guide)
    There is a lot to be said about security in React Native apps, but this simple guide is a great starting point and something to remember.
