A React web dev built a real native iOS app in a week.
No Swift. No Xcode. Just the React skills already in hand, plus Expo, Claude Code, and Expo Skills.
We'd love to see more React devs taking on mobile use cases with these tools.
The blog below details all the skills that transferred and where there were some rough edges to figure out ↓

Underrated skill for #Developers and other high tech careers: driving something. I've been a community organizer for about 5 years now, and it's really difficult to continue to keep going on things. Enthusiasm wanes and it's hard to keep going day after day on something.
Our VOD is up from the June #YEG#Javascript and #Ruby#Meetup. Come learn about Metaprogramming in Ruby, and see how we can run #Python script in the browser. Some cool stuff for JS and Ruby #Developers this month!

“An Introduction to Metaprogramming in Ruby” by @KarlParkinson7
"A fun trip into Eigenclasses and Monkey-patching that you don't want to miss" by Andy S
Really confused by a leader who one one hand says AB is excited for tech companies and innovation and on the other hand slams “the laptop class” and treats us like we’re not welcome in Alberta. This isn’t the right way to attract tech talent. #ableg#Abpoli
