Sent a PR to Upgrade Helper to warn about this:

Screenshot of a code diff, showing necessary changes when upgrading from React Native 0.76 to 0.77
◆ Release notes: reactnative.dev/blog/2025/01...
Screenshot of the React Native Upgrade Helper showcasing AppDelegate.mm deleted, and AppDelegate.swift added.
If you're upgrading from React Native 0.76 -> 0.77 / 0.78 be careful
You might have noticed the template changed from Obj-C++ to Swift, but it's not just a syntax change
If you're sticking with AppDelegate .mm in your project, you still need to add the lines in the next post 👇🏻

Clojure (the language) has tricked an entire generation of devs (me) to think "closure" is written with "j"

macOS menu bar app popover open, showing "PowerBuddy" an app to prevent display to sleep
Tired of having to mess with System Settings every time I want to leave something downloading... 🔋
WIP
Yep! I thought of that later, Expo should definitely make it a lot easier for the agents
Unfortunately Im building something with RN macOS this time 😁
I do have plenty of RN exp and was trying to make the point that you still need an experienced eye when trying to vibe code mobile apps
🔋 TIL macOS has "Power management assertions" that you can enable via IOKit
IOPMAssertionCreateWithName lets you create temporary rules for power management (display sleep, hibernation) that override what you have in System Settings ⚙️
I have something coming with this 👀
three steps to building desktop apps:
1. "if I run a shell command I can do anything"
2. realize you cant because of the security sandboxing
3. find an api that does what you want and it's easier
Sometimes it will just alter 3 different things in your Xcode build settings that are completely unnecessary (based on outdated info) that will break your app
And going back and testing all the changes seems to take more time than building it manually in the first place
🔮 I tried Vibe coding with React Native. It's a double-edged sword:
I liked it because I learned new things very fast (e.g. new iOS APIs I didn't know existed)
I didn't like it because it's so easy to get your app in a broken and hard-to-recover state
"explorer.autoReveal": false
is amongst my top 10 vscode / cursor settings
We’re making the first moves to make the React Native Porto Meetup happen! 🇵🇹

these giant emojis might be the worst iOS update ever shipped
I NEVER want to use them, and I dont know when it happens, but somehow it always mistakenly happens
Yeahhh me too! First music is already perfect with an awesome drop

New to the library
Idea: Twitch, but with multiple audio channels.
Each viewer would be able to adjust the streamer's music / voice / game volumes separately to their own liking.
Another morning lost to Gradle caches 🥳
Meet Fabrice AI - functional framework for building AI agents.
While building Cali, I needed something stateless that can work on the server, inside CLI, breakdown complex tasks, and be simple.
Couldn't find one, so I built one. Give it a try!

Today I’ll be live with @thymikee.bsky.social talking about open-source projects we’ve been working on at Callstack.
OH, AND @grabbou.com is dropping a brand-new library LIVE! Come hang out and ask us your questions.
