React Native Gesture Handler just hit 5M weekly downloads – that’s absolutely crazy! 🤯 Thanks so much for choosing it for your projects! 🙌 And if you haven’t already, be sure to drop us a ⭐️ on GitHub! https://t.co/bbKudUIEJg

In case you ever wondered how to scan that QR code with your Simulator 😉

Our App.js keynote has finished, so we can officially spill the beans also here 📣

React Native Gesture Handler 3.0 is now officially stable, offering a hook-based API compatible with the React Compiler, deep Reanimated integration, the new recommended way to build buttons, and more.

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

@peterpme @kzzzf To add to that, you'd need to use the new 𝚃𝚘𝚞𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚋𝚕𝚎 component to see the full benefits in v3 at the moment.

SimCam app has a CLI letting agents control the camera on iOS simulator! This makes it possible to test camera enabled workflows in your apps (below I run claude to test barcode scanner app on a number of pre-made assets)

[Software Mansion @swmansion]

Launching SimCam – a tool that finally lets you test camera features directly in the iOS simulator! 🚀

🎦 Stream video from your Mac's built-in or external camera, inject an image or video, or generate a QR code.

Coming out this week: tool for camera testing in the iOS Simulator. 🎦 No more reaching for the phone mid-development.

Stay tuned! 🚀

Check out the full changelog: https://t.co/wrLmYI1Bdk

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

We've released Gesture Handler 3.0.0-beta.3:
• New component designed to replace existing buttons in RNGH (expect to hear more about this, so stay tuned!)
• Mount multiple views directly under a single 𝙶𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚞𝚛𝚎𝙳𝚎𝚝𝚎𝚌𝚝𝚘𝚛
• A ton of bug fixes

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

The input from me was a reproduction and a "fix it" prompt

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

This is amazing. Argent just completed its first task in Gesture Handler - https://t.co/TwWnayY6WM, which was constantly pushed back due to higher-priority issues coming in.

Pulsar goes brrrr...

[Software Mansion @swmansion]

Meet Pulsar: your haptic presets library for Swift, Kotlin, and React Native! 🚀

👉 150+ free patterns you can browse, filter, preview, and ship in minutes
👉 Audio preview of each preset so you can test it on a simulator without deploying
👉 Playground and app that let you feel the haptics on your phone

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

@Miguel750343611 @swmansion Yes! Since it's still in beta, the version suggested by Expo is 2.30.0, but you can change it to 3.0.0-beta.2.

What if you could search for commits semantically?

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

We may not be splitting atoms yet, but we for sure have the technology for splitting expenses.

[Notes from Poland 🇵🇱 @notesfrompoland]

Poland has confirmed that it is in talks with France over joining its new nuclear deterrence programme, which would see Paris increase the size of its nuclear arsenal and cooperate with European allies, who would be able to host French nuclear assets https://t.co/iDXCfjE79r

[Jakub Piasecki @breskin67]

Yep, that's me. You’re probably wondering how I ended up in this situation.

[Software Mansion @swmansion]

Meet @breskin67, workshop host at React Native Paradise '26! 🌴

👉🏼 Kuba maintains react-native-gesture-handler and contributes to RN Core, focusing on the New Architecture.

Join him this spring in Croatia for a deep dive into the ecosystem: https://t.co/m6ladjIuJG.

@plahteenlahti From the Router's docs, it looks like the only requirement for a Link to work with different components is that they support the onPress or onClick prop.

RNGH buttons support onPress, so they should work.
