How to enable Hermes v1: reactnative.dev/blog/2025/10...
October 8, 2025 at 5:30 PM
Building off "static Hermes", avg improvement of 60% over current Hermes. Tested in the wild with Expensify, on high- and low-end devices

Hermes v1!

New architecture shipped as default 1 year ago, October 2024. Stopped supporting old architecture in May 2025. Today, from 0.82, they're removing the old architecture completely!
October 8, 2025 at 5:21 PM
"new architecture started in 2018" when's the last time you shipped something you worked on for > 5 years
October 8, 2025 at 5:20 PM
Aha: DevTools are 0.83, planned for later this year. With the recent release cadence, I tend to believe them. DOM APIs are still pretty big, if they dropped all of this today at once I'd be a bit shocked

Y'all this is not a drill, there is a network panel!!! Genuine web parity tbh
October 8, 2025 at 5:17 PM
"investing in performance" yada yada. Traces and flamegraphs are massive tho
October 8, 2025 at 5:16 PM
Talk about DevTools. Perf panel!!!
October 8, 2025 at 5:14 PM
This is the real keynote tbh. This is officially React Native Conf
October 8, 2025 at 5:12 PM
Web performance APIs too???
October 8, 2025 at 5:11 PM
October 8, 2025 at 5:10 PM

"React Native is moving from being inspired by the web, to being aligned with it"
October 8, 2025 at 5:05 PM
This is actually really big. This is what the new architecture enables, but the work has to be done before the new architecture can actually be taken advantage of.
October 8, 2025 at 5:05 PM
Reactivated v4! Rewritten to take advantage of the new architecture. FlashList and Legend List too. React Native Enriched is the new rich text editor from Software Mansion

RN DevTools ❤️ recreating the experience of Chrome DevTools, but on native. (Web devs: if you haven't written mobile apps, you don't know how good we have it with the DevTools)

Tooling: Expo! SDK 54. Precomposed iOS binaries! Expo App Awards!

Expo Go is on the Oculus Quest store!

I guess Amazon has a new TV OS? With native React Native? Huh
