React Navigation 8 alpha makes typed hooks more screen-aware. Pass a screen name and useRoute or useNavigation becomes much more specific. That means type-safe params and navigation, less boilerplate. Read the article👇 Link below

And today’s the day of @satya164.page, creator of React Navigation, React Native Paper, and much more. Needless to say, he is one of the most impactful contributors to the RN ecosystem. 📆 Paris, September 24 👉 reactnativeconnection.io

It will come as a surprise... but I have some vices 🙈 One of them is getting easily addicted to sucky android games full of ads 🙉 One day I thought: maybe I can keep playing, without the ads? 🤔 What happened next? I found that the ad revenue I was producing, was tunnelled to Russia 🙊

React Navigation 8 alpha is here 👀 📝 Highlights - Native Bottom Tabs by default - Access to route, navigation, & state for any parent screens - Better TypeScript types for static configuration - Push history entries without pushing screens And many more...

Reanimated 4.2.0 is here, and it brings gifts! 🔥 🎁 Long-awaited Shared Element Transitions 🎉 Not production-ready yet, so they’re behind a feature flag. Please, test it out and give us feedback! 🎁 Experimental performance fixes, inspired by real apps...

Did you wonder what you can build for Meta Quest? We’ve got your back and came up with ideas that should be a fun challenge to implement! Look out for tomorrow’s post for an inspiration. We also have a special announcement planned with Meta so keep an eye out 😉

Note that this doesn't happen with @tanstack.com start server functions because unlike "directives", they are actually typed so you'll get a Promise on type level and linting can tell you if you forget to await it. So types are good I guess, who would've thought 🤷‍♂️

React Native and @expo.dev on Meta Quest = new challenges, same fun 🕶️ Let's explore library compatibility together! 👇

as someone who very much enjoys @chasebliss.bsky.social pedals, i am so stoked that this app exists and that it was built using tools that i work on expo.dev/blog/buildin...

The latest version of React Navigation now has a new unstable API to automatically navigate to the correct screen after a conditional render (e.g., if a screen was opened via a deep link, but was behind auth): UNSTABLE_routeNamesChangeBehavior="lastUnhandled" reactnavigation.org/docs/auth-fl...

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👇

Excited that we managed to ship The Recipe Box for iPad and iPhone with Liquid Glass support and recipe timers ready for download on new iPhone day. Get it here for iPad: apps.apple.com/us/app/the-r...

has anyone encountered this odd bug with view transitions? this can't possibly be expected behaviour, can it? help me obi-wan @jakearchibald.com you're my only hope 🥺 svelte.dev/playground/6...

right to repair folks eat your heart out

With React Native AI, you can choose the right provider for your use case: - Apple provider → system models built into iOS - MLC provider → run any supported model locally

Excited to run my React Query – Beyond the Basics workshop at @reactadvanced.gitnation.org, Nov 27 in London! 🎉 If you know the fundamentals & want to level up with prefetching, cache seeding, persistence & smooth UX, this one’s for you 🚀. Hope to see you there:

Expo Go just made it to the metaverse: www.meta.com/experiences/...

Getting Legend List for web ready for my @reactuniverseconf.com talk in beautiful Wroclaw 😍

I've had so many folks ask now, that I had to go for it. You asked me to build that ideal Inferno X framework that I described ages ago, so I went ahead and did just that. I built something that actually works and, well, it works well. Oh, and doesn't use signals!

Couldn't find any article talking about how to set up macOS-like shortcuts on Hyprland, so decided to write one after I figured out how to. satya164.page/posts/macos-...

I'm excited to announce I will be speaker at React Universe, just next week! 🥳 It's high time we talk Worklets on a big stage.

reminder (because this truly annoys me): peer dependency resolution is pretty broken with severe bugs in *every* package manager, except pnpm. Yes, really

Congrats to me, I guess. Sorry @expo.dev, but the credit is all mine.

SDK 54 beta is out 🚀 ◆ RN 0.81 + React 19.1 ◆ Precompiled React Native for iOS → ⚡ faster builds ◆ iOS 26 Liquid Glass icons + Expo UI ◆ Android 16 edge-to-edge + predictive back ◆ Updates to EAS Update + Autolinking ◆ Final release w/ Legacy Arch Details in the changelog: expo.dev/changelog/sd...

✨ I just published a brand-new post! It’s about the notorious SVG <path> element. With its compact Regex-style syntax, <path> can be super intimidating. But they’re also *incredibly* powerful, letting us draw (and animate!) curved lines. You can read it here, and I’ll share more info in thread. 🧵

2 Fast 2 LegendList. Beta 2morrow.

Scoped View Transitions are ready for testing in Chrome! SVTs expose el.startViewTransition() on HTML elements. The element creates a scope for the transition, ∴ the transition pseudo-elements are affected by ancestor clips and transforms. Multiple SVTs on separate elements can run *concurrently*.

Built an emoji picker with autocomplete, virtualized scrolling, and arrow key navigation using React Aria in ~50 lines. 😎 Combines Select, Popover, Autocomplete, SearchField, Virtualizer, and ListBox. Composition ftw! stackblitz.com/edit/react-a...

Support for PlatformColor, DynamicColorIOS & CSS custom properties is coming to React Navigation's theming system 💅 Currently, it only supports plain color strings. But this will enable using design system tokens defined in native code or CSS without needing to redeclare them.

See our docs if you want to use it in your app to debug navigation. For now, it shows navigation actions and how the state was updated based on the action, but we also plan to show more information in the future.

It was broken for a while because the format of the stack traces had changed since the initial implementation. This is how it looked when it was broken. Not very useful.

Do you use React Navigation devtools? It should now display the stack trace correctly. So you can easily see where the navigation originated from.

Gesture Handler 2.28.0 heading your way 🫰 ✅ Support for React Native 0.81 ✅ gestureHandlerRootHOC is now deprecated ✅ Submitting TextInput inside Pressable no longer blocks gestures

Still a little more time to register for the @callstack.com webinar that starts in an hour - Callstack CTO and founder Mike Grabowski and I will be talking about how to migrate your app to Expo! www.callstack.com/events/how-t...

Rozenite - a plugin framework for React Native DevTools - is now live in alpha! 🎉 What started as a hacky PoC is now something you can use in real projects. Still lots to come: better network monitor, Redux DevTools, Re.Pack support & more 💪

The last time I used Gulp was almost a decade ago. Funny that GitHub shows it as a suggested workflow

Radon IDE 1.8 is out! 🔄 Run multiple devices in the background – one of your most requested features 🧠 Added support for Module Context Protocol in Radon AI ⚛️ Added support for React Native 0.80 🐞 Tons of bug fixes for a smoother, more stable DX

CSS uses a complex algorithm to decide how to animate transforms. If you get it wrong, as many folks do, you end up with an unnatural animation. Here's how it works, and how to avoid the pitfalls. jakearchibald.com/2025/animati...

React Native 0.80 is now available! This release includes React 19.1, stability improvements to our JavaScript API, freezes the Legacy Architecture, and more. reactnative.dev/blog/2025/0...

Botanically a anything that develops from a flower is a fruit, so a lot of "vegetables" are technically fruits. Eggplant, Zucchini etc. are fruits too. But culinary definition of a vegetable is edible part of a plant, fruit often has a sweet flavor. It can also depend on the situation.

After some insightful user feedback, we've added a new guide on how to migrate an Expo Go app to use development builds. This is important. We don't want people pushing Expo Go too far. It's a sandbox. Production apps need development builds. docs.expo.dev/develop/deve...

The truth is… you don’t always need react-native-svg. 💥 Sometimes there’s just a better way to get the job done. 👀 www.youtube.com/shorts/IiSdp...

Look, I wrote this in the car, and published it all from my phone, and I'm not entirely sure I'm saying anything new, but... here you: "AI: did you check your work". A recent experience that makes me, as usual, concerned. remysharp.com/2025/05/31/a...
