Most React Native APIs work on Meta Quest out of the box (far more than you’d expect). This clip breaks down why the workflow feels familiar and where the few missing pieces show up. Full episode is live ➡️ clstk.com/48smRhk What would you try building for Quest first?

On mobile, your app window size is static, but things are different in VR, where users can move, resize, and interact in new ways with your app. That’s why adaptive layout plays a crucial role when creating your designs. Learn how to do it in React Native in my latest article👇

Build → Submit → Publish This flow is a bigger challenge for many developers than creating an app. Without it, your app won’t be able to reach wider audience. It’s the last step in the journey from an idea to real solution. My new article goes into detail about publishing RN app on Meta Store. 👇

Creating an app for Meta Quest is one part of the equation. Without knowing how to release, your ideas will never see the light of day. Tomorrow, I’m breaking down exactly how to publish to the Meta Horizon Store, from build process to monetization, so stay tuned!

Last year, we proved that React Native is a great fit for Vision Pro. For React Conf 2025, we’re doing the same for @MetaQuestVR. We built a showcase app to show how React Native scales to VR platforms, and the results speak for themselves! Check out what we did on our blog👇

Looking back, last year was a bit crazy! Got vim and nix pilled. Went to the USA twice. Changed jobs and got fired after two months due to mass layoffs. 💀😂 Paid off my mortgage. I wonder what 2025 will bring. 😅

Hello there! Just got my first 3D printer. Any tips and tricks? What are the most useful or interesting things that you printed?
