@SaffronOlive Diablo UB set when? That would be the one to get me hyped up on UB set 😊

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@ccheever Makes sense.

Which things are the cross-cutting ones? Curious if Contract's analyzability is the core thing that can't be retrofitted, or if a stricter compiler-enforced React could get most of the way there.

Speaking of @ccheever Exact, tried it out and spun something quite fast for web, iOS and Mac. Impressive stuff, although still with rough edges. But the direction is interesting.

Do we need a new framework though, could the ideas be part of React/RN or too hard and big changes?

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@sethwebster Between @acdlite hinting at React 20 and Exact dropping the day before, this week's React Foundation summit feels like a big one. Will the community get a recap of what's decided? Would love to see the "transparent governance" part of the mission in action.

@janicduplessis Yes please!!

@mozzius @nishanbende The native bottom tabs are super tall as well on Android currently, especially ridiculous in landscape. Material3 and having landscape icons and text on same row would go a long way

Cool to see how Expo uses agents for bug triaging and fixing. Noticed a slow down when upgrading Jest 29->30 on Expo project and agent figured the why. Reported it, right away agent confirmed it and now it is fixed and merged 🥳

@expo So when is 58 exactly gonna be out though? Still beta afaik

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@kadikraman Congratulations!

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

Finally!!

project.pbxproj is dead 🪦

Xcode 27.2 ships a JSON project format (.xcproj): default for new projects, readable, merge-friendly, agent-editable.

@jamonholmgren I remember something similar happening after Airbnb sunsetting RN blog post!

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@jamonholmgren I mainly agree with this take, but the pit of success could be made bigger for these. And many of these have been getting much better lately, but not necessarily common knowledge / easy path to end there without being an expert.

@expo has a package called expo-template-bare-minum

Petition to rename it to expo-template-bare-necessities

😀

@swmansion @satya164 Does this Touchable handle scrolling on list without flickering the opacity of the button?

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@natebirdman @zoontek @entiendoNULL I agree they are essential libraries, but I still wouldn't put then into RN core - having then separate allows iterating on them faster and easier than as part of the core.

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@stachbial @tomekzaw_ Ok you got me interested 👀👀

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

I feel like old arch was React Native make it work, new arch was make it right and now loving the make it fast era ✌️ shout out to all for making it happen 💪

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@LeSiOO @callstackio Oh wow that blue bg brought back Norton commander memories 😊

[Juha Linnanen @plrdev]

@ziusko @hirbod Secretly one of the more important react native libraries out there, thank you for your work 🙌
