Has anyone incrementally adopted @expo router in a project using vanilla React Navigation? If so, would love to hear how you did it/any gotchas. Ideally we’d be able to create new screens/navigator stacks using expo router, and incrementally move the existing screens #reactnative

Has Google Play #Android app review been taking longer these days? We’ve been averaging ~2 days for approval, used to be a few hours 🤔

So are iOS 18.4 simulators still borked due to developer.apple.com/forums/thread/…? I think this is biting some of our devs - guess I need to tell everyone to get on 18.3 🙃

This is the worst part of JS/TS in VSCode. The unreliability of it is maddening. Will auto complete work? Will CMD + click work? Feels completely random

The discourse around Suspense and fetch-on-render/render-as-you-fetch has me wondering: Is render-as-you-✍️fetch possible in #reactnative? I don't think @reactnavigation/@expo Router (yet) support "render as you fetch" - so it seems "fetch on render" is the only option in RN?

I wish more SaaS #reactnative SDKs were “JavaScript first” instead of wrappers around their native SDKs. JS based SDKs would be lighter weight and provide more opportunity for code sharing with web. I suppose I should be happy if they ship a RN SDK at all 😅

This would be tough to build in #reactnative I’d think. Skia or SVGs seem like the best approach?

Had to make a flow chart to understand the current state of debugging with #reactnative😵‍💫 Using Hermes/Flipper seems to be the most pain free @reactnative debugging experience.

Hey #reactnative folks - is there still not a great way to do inline sub/super script with Text component? I know I can use multiple Text components with View/lineheight etc, but that breaks text wrapping 😔
