My next video is coming along really well. I have a lot of simple but really fun techniques with Skia shaders and SDF functions. Really looking forward to releasing this!

🚨Cool announcement guys! I’ve been seeing a lot of List Profiling lately which made me realize we weren’t documenting one of the FlashList tools we use at @ShopifyEng for profiling lists. 🧵

All games with the “retro pixel” look should have CRT shaders built in to settings. The CRT effect makes pixel art look a lot nicer and how it was probably intended to look in the 90s when we played those games.

After being a developer working on a design system for two years, I don’t know that I’d want to start developing a new app without establishing that first. It makes developing features so much faster. It’s frustrating that a lot of startups rush past this step.

Daniel Friyia 🇨🇦 @wa2goose.bsky.social · 23/08/2025

Claude Code is crazy good when you can give it examples of other similar code. I feel like most of my recent productivity gains have come from pointing it at code I know works. If I leave things open ended, it goes off the rails and makes a mess

You might be sleeping on some of the most powerful features in the Expo SDK. 🛠️ Remote build cache 🎙️ Expo Speech 💾 SQLite async storage 🧭 Router UI 🔄 Background tasks 🧠 API routes (yes, full stack in Expo) Check out the post (with video) from @codewithbeto.dev: expo.dev/blog/5-expo-...

5 Expo SDK features you should be using (but might not be)

Unlock hidden gems in the Expo SDK. These 6 features boost performance, save time, and turn your React Native app into a full-stack powerhouse.

I am excited for when we have a more straightforward way to work with WebGPU and @threejs.org in @react.dev native. I always wanted to build a clone of the two stick shooter from Nier Automata as a learning project 🤔

Have been working with Remotion for my next YouTube video. It’s been a really cool experiance so far. When it first came out I got really bogged down in how cumbersome it can be to move things frame by frame. Claude Code has been immensely helpful in this process

📢 Just scheduled a special edition of my newsletter: Why I’m Bullish on React Native Apple’s new liquid design is shaking up the UI world and React Native apps are already benefiting just by compiling with the latest Xcode. I break down what’s changing, what’s coming (like native tabs!), and why...

The MCPs for the iOS Simulators are OK but they seem to miss tap targets a lot. I want to do a deeper dive into these and see if I can find a way to do automated testing reliably through prompts 🤔

Alright I think I finally have a cool example for MatterJS “game” physics and Skia. I have a busy next couple of weeks, once I am free again I am going to get to work on this 🤔

Some late night coding 🧑‍💻. Very cool how MatterJS works so well with React Native Skia. This was a lot of fun!!! Maybe I’ll make a video on how to integrate these two sometime soon! @wcandillon.bsky.social we need a Skia page on here so we have a place to tag with fun demos on BlueSky 🙂
