What if you had access to all native APIs in React Native?

Defining custom UIKit views anywhere you want, using cutting edge platform APIs, or adding custom effects to your views using Metal

We've published a preview of NativeScript compiled as a RN TurboModule using JSI. We'd love for you to try it out and show us what you've built

Using agents, the possibilities are endless. You can make native components on the fly and they hot-reload without recompiling your app

On NPM at @nativescript/react-native

@luckymoooon @StrengthClub1 I have a Windows box arriving today. Will be configuring Linux on it too. Better Windows/Linux host support coming to SimDeck soon!

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

SimDeck is now available on App Store!

Access iOS simulators and Android emulators & test the apps your agents are making remotely from your machine. Works over LAN & Tailscale support built-in.

$ npm i -g simdeck@latest && simdeck pair

Install the app. Scan QR code. Go!

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@StrengthClub1 Works for anything you run on the Simulator :)

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@MohamedBknf There’s no specific config needed, it is streaming the simulator straight from Mac to phone via WebRTC

You can run the Expo app on simulator and use the simulator from your phone

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@TheKany_ will be working on that soon

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@bunl0l Windows support likely needs work, I don’t have access to a Windows machine at the moment. I will look into it!

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@bunl0l Yes any kind of app you can install on iOS sim or Android emulator! and more features coming for RN apps specifically soon, to help with agentic development

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@jeremywdaily Let me know about your experience!

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@Prithvi_Jadwani You gotta try vibe coding apps from your phone using Codex mobile. It’s addicting. And this goes well with that! You can see the results live streamed to your phone

[Nathan Walker @wwwalkerrun]

We had a designer on a large team in a country where the app we were developing was not available (wasn't distributed to that locale). They needed to work through Figma designs by going through app flows themself.

Using SimDeck solved everything in an elegant way allowing them to control the experience while we talked through the designs.

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

SimDeck streaming infrastructure is open-source:

This is what happens when the economy is built around banks, not tech

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@scoopdiddy1 @thdxr that's what I'm thinking is going to happen. people who are good at using these will make better tools, making this tech more accessible for everyone. but @thdxr's point is right, that just means we can get more out of these tools

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@Baconbrix Congrats Evan! Your work is inspiring. Look forward to what’s next! Thank you for everything 🫡

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@ClaudeDevs Codex goal is still going on

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

is this time to take a break

[Dj @buildwithdjdev]

@ClaudeDevs y'all didn't put me on the OSS plan 😔
