πŸš€ Galactic News: Server Defined UI, New Arch Survey & IDX


Hey Reader,

while we all wait for Expo to come up with a solution for React Native Server components, there's a new tool rising up that promises Server Defined Rendering.

I explain what this means and how Rise works in the new video!

Behind the scenes I'm also working on big changes for Galaxies, some (hopefully) helpful tutorials and fresh podcast episodes for you 🀝

Happy Coding,
Simon✌️
