A standout difference when using #reactnative compared to Swift / Kotlin / Flutter, is the ability to push over-the-air updates. Most bug fixes + small features can be released quickly (no app review queues) and also auto-install on app use. My notes: ninjapixel.io/v2/man-drawer/…

`place-content: center;` is handy shorthand for Flexbox’s `justify-content: center` and `align-items: center`✌️

Each software product has a small set of blockbuster tasks that deliver a huge amount of value. Each product also has a large set of less important tasks. These can destroy value by getting in the way of the important tasks.
