    ⚛️ What's been happening with React Native's Strict TypeScript API (and 1.0 👀)? A lot of refinements, finally enabling us to roll out by default in 0.87 🧵

    Tasteful use of HDR in user interfaces is hard, but iOS 27 Beta 5 achieves this: really fixes the plastic → glass look. Pretty sure I'm one of the only people who notices this stuff 🙈

    Tip: Use the /upgrade-react-native skill if you're upgrading a bare React Native project! In 0.87, we've included an additional /migrate-to-strict-api skill, to make Strict TS API adoption more seamless.

    I just *love* giving Claude previously arduous research tasks and getting a result in <10 mins. This is web Claude, not even CC. On-the-fly data fetching scripts just materialised + executed as needed, and I don't need to care 👏🏻
