πŸš€ Galactic News: Yoga, Dropdowns & React Native Primitives


Hey Reader,

what do Yoga and dropdowns have in common?

I talk about both this week 😎

This weeks tutorial is all about using Zeego, and Delphine Bugner explained a lot about Yoga on our Rocket Ship podcast.

On top of that I'm making big progress on the Trello clone I teased before and can't wait to share it with you!

Hope you'll have an amazing week of creating epic React Native apps and I can light up your path with fresh content.

Happy Coding,
Simon✌️
