Seeing some @expo/ui hype, so here's a quick sneak-peek of two features we're shipping that I'm personally really excited about:
➡️fully native input components + iOS form sections
➡️context menus + iOS previews

00:00- I’m super excited to share what we've been cooking the last few months for Expo SDK 52: 🚀 expo-file-system@next 🚀 We rebuilt the API and rewrote the module so it’s both way easier to use and fully synchronous. 🧵
- You can use Reanimated to get 120FPS microinteractions on all major platforms. Should this be a component library?
00:00 - I feel like shaders and native glass UIs are a perfect match 👀
00:00 - Starting now, you can create an @expo module directly in your app! Just run `npx create-expo-module --local` inside your project directory. 🪄 Autolinks itself 🚀 Works with run command and EAS build docs.expo.dev/modules/get-st…
- Made an npx tool to compare your react-native project to the "New Architecture support in popular libraries" spreadsheet. This lists only autolinked packages and looks up if they have been tested by the community, and on what package and RN version. ➡️ npx new-arch
- We landed first-class support for SwiftUI in expo-modules in SDK52, so now it's time for Jetpack Compose in SDK53. PR is already merged, docs are coming soon 🚀
- You can write new native modules in an existing @expo app – it's quick and easy! Here's how to do it (from an Expo contributor) 🧵
- Expo Devs, you may not need a splash screen. Why we used it: ⚠️ Fonts & assets loaded asynchronously causing jitters ⚠️ Apps loaded slower on old arch Now, you can: ➡️ Make sure you bundle fonts into app binary ➡️ Use a light/dark solid color. And just let it auto hide.
- Reanimated 3 lets you add buttery smooth layout animations with just a few lines of code. 🧈 🧈 🧈 Material Design's shared axis animation? No problem for reanimated 🧙♂️ Should we make a helper library with some of these? 🤔
