Do you like phone games like this but hate when they're full of ads? Me too. That's why I made my own. Play once per day for free, or pay $0.99 and play unlimited forever. No ads. No consumables. Just flow. Link in thread.
Apple today took a shot at React Native and other cross-platform frameworks.
I have thoughts.
First, the quote in question, from their keynote (around the 40 minute mark):
"Some other frameworks promise the ability to write code once for Android and iOS.
And that may sound good, but by the time you've written custom code to adapt each platform's conventions, connected to hardware with platform-specific APIs, implemented accessibility, and then filled in functionality gaps by adding additional logic and relying on a host of plugins, you've likely written a lot more code than you'd planned on.
And you are still left with an app that could be slower, look out of place, and can't directly take advantage of features like Live Activities and widgets.
Apple's native frameworks are uncompromisingly focused on helping you build the best apps."

This is honestly so inspiring. Jay fixes React Native list performance, and doesn't use a single line of native code to do it.
(...thus proving once again that top-notch React Native performance is rarely constrained by JavaScript performance, but rather by time, skill, creativity, and dedication!)

⭐️ New @ir_ignite release out, version 10.1.3, where we removed `eslint-plugin-n`, `eslint-config-standard`, and `eslint-plugin-promise` to simplify our standard eslint setup and fix some dependency conflicts.
Tested with yarn/npm -- report issues if you find any.
Thanks to @coolsoftware.dev for the PR, and @Stefan_Wallin for reporting!

I read Daishi's amazing article about state management, and a few hours later, got multiple questions about MobX-State-Tree and the future of React.
So I wrote my own thoughts about where I see MST headed in the React Compiler Era:
