◆
◆ More server features for advanced web
◆ React-first APIs that just work™️
Details in the blog:
expo.dev/blog/expo-ro...
◆ React Native 0.81
◆ Precompiled RN for iOS → faster clean builds
◆ iOS 26 Liquid Glass icons + views
◆ Android 16 target, edge-to-edge default
◆ Router v6 native tabs
◆ Updates: header overrides, progress, reload screen
◆ So much more...

Behind the scenes, changes to autolinking & dependencies make updates easier, and improve support across package managers for workspaces & isolated dependencies

(Also please give SDK 54's beta a try ❤️)

Next steps; roll my own fork of rntp.dev so I can use it in #ReactNative

Can’t wait to see all the cool things you folks get up to in 2025!

🎄 Merry Christmas to everyone reading! 🎄
This concludes the Advent of #ReactNative! Huge thanks to the community for keeping this ecosystem alive.
I'd like to take a moment to thank the following folks:
We’re all familiar with the built-in StyleSheet API, but its simplicity leaves large gaps for improvement, and thankfully over the years many such solutions have sprung up. Today I’ll go over some of the more popular ones.
After coming back to React Native apps this year, I was curious as to what the gold standard is for E2E testing. It didn’t take long to see that everyone was using Detox, and by jove, it really does feel like Playwright for React Native apps: wix.github.io/Detox/

As the ugly stepchild of desktop platforms, Linux and React Native have had a more tempestuous relationship over the years.

react-native-windows brings Windows support to React Native. Before this year, I’d never used it at all so getting to grips with it earlier this year for a project was a bit of an upskilling process 😅
react-native-macos celebrates its 5th birthday next year, and its been a blast watching it improve and evolve.
I really enjoy using #SQLite, and one of my favorite developments in the React Native space has been the variety of tools that you can use with SQLite today.

As far back as I can remember, #ReactNative’s iOS support has always been built around CocoaPods (maybe this wasn’t true for the very first releases). In all those years, its worked fairly well (minus the occasional bit of drama with Ruby/Gems).

A new #ReactNative contender arrives on the scene! While its announcement may have been a little spicy, I think a little competition is a good thing.

Not a strictly #ReactNative post, but it typically only comes up when rebuilding native projects. I think the logs speak for themselves:

Another top-shelf #ReactNative contribution from Shopify. Its high-performance 2D graphics rendering means you can get professional-grade, hardware-accelerated graphics performance in your RN apps.
The premier solution for animations on #ReactNative hit v3 this year and is still going strong thanks to @swmansion.com.
Back in the early days of #ReactNative, there was a *lot* of competition in the navigation space (albeit mostly from Facebook with itself). There was NavigatorIOS, Navigator, then briefly NavigationExperimental. @expo.dev even tried their hand at it with ex-navigation too.

A mobile-first, managed CI/CD that has top-tier integrations with GitHub. A tightly-knit web app for building, deploying and OTA-updating #ReactNative apps. A CLI tool that keeps things ridiculously simple.
That’s what comes to mind for us when we think about EAS at @twodoors.dev
