Huge day for @expo . We just made a preview of EAS Update available. It lets you deploy your mobile apps like you would a website.
Makes things possible like:
- continuous deployment
- incremental rollouts
- rollbacks
- get a bugfix to all your users in seconds, etc.
Amazing to see how fast BlueSky was able to get a v1 website and app built by a small team using Expo and React and RN. Makes such a difference when you can write once and put most of your energy into product instead of platforms.
Google's AI models have been racking up the Ws.
Best small model: Gemma 27B
Best context window: 2M toks
Best video understanding: Gemini (all)
Best image editing: Gemini 2 Flash
Best cost-quality tradeoff: Gemini 2 Flash
