It's been fantastic to work with Callstack to bring React Native to Windows 7 and 8, and then to bring React Native to game console products as well. I'm really excited with my new venture, Rebecker Specialties, to work with Callstack to bring React Native to the Apple Vision Pro and to mixed reality platforms.
This is the book and the people that encapsulates a lot of the work we drove at PlayStation to make React Native able to achieve the 1.0 goal of 200ms app Time To Interactive and 600ms Time To Fresh Data on PS5. I was so pleased we got the uplift into the product and put into open source. I really can’t recommend Callstack enough for this kind of hard-core, magical, disruptive technical execution.
There are so many tricky parts to making a great native app, and to lower the barrier to entry, React Native can abstract away things that you might want to come back and check on later once you’ve got your app up and running – this ebook does a solid job of helping you understand how to really get from good to great.
Feel like a functionality is missing in Flipper? Good news! Flipper is easily extensible and has a comprehensive guide on how to write custom plugins in React. Why not build your own?
I’m extremely proud to represent github.com/callstack/react-native-visionos team at React Open Source Awards ceremony today at #reactsummit! Big shoutout for @o_kwasniewski and @syke for making this happen. Well deserved recognition
