Hey Reader, Apple just dropped a new UI paradigm called Liquid Glass β and React Native is already ready. Because React Native uses real native views, we can take advantage of new system features like this right away. Meanwhile, frameworks like Flutter (which re-render their own UIs) will likely struggle to keep up. This is exactly why I believe so strongly in React Native β and why I built Galaxies.dev to help web and app developers like you go from Zero to Hero with native mobile apps. π Whatβs new in RN this week?
πΊ Over the next few weeks, Iβll be slowing down a bit (vacation time!) and switching to a bi-weekly video schedule. But Iβve got some exciting content lined up for later this year β especially for those of you on the Zero to Hero journey πͺ Until then - keep building, keep shipping. β β¨ The Frozen Arch, Killing my App & React Native World DominationI recap the AppJS events, the current state of React Native and the next projects I work on in my latest podcast episode. π Watch the Podcastβ β π« Nebula Notes

I've distilled the entire 2-day event into a short recap video just for you. Main topic? The legacy Architecture codebase will be frozen π± But that's not all. We're on the verge of exciting...
Hey Reader, I'm continuing my quest to cover some React Native Essentials with the new video about Tabs with Expo Router this week. Last week I also shipped a new course on Galaxies that covers the changes of Expo Router 5 including RSC π While I still recover from GI pain and some rough days, I'm watching up on the AppJS talks - which was your favorite?
