🚀 I built a Wolt-style food delivery app with React Native - from UI to maps to checkout flow.

This is one of my most complete apps yet - including a full Git Workflow 🔥

Built with @Expo.dev, @coderabbitai.bsky.social AI Reviews, Reanimated, @Sentry.io and more.

I think I'm finally taking on a new pet project and work on a mobile game.

I always wanted this.

It's financially probably a bad idea. Also time wise.

But since I was I child I wanted to be a game dev.

And maybe 2026 is the year it finally happens.

Discovered a new API testing tool and love the simplicity.

Just my calls, and a well formatted response 😍

If you want to get away from Postman or Insomnia, check out Yaak for a great alternative 🔥

Didn't know how easy it is to get LLMs return perfect structured data 😱

Just use useObject() from the Vercel AI SDK and let Zod do the work 💪

"Good morning. Why is your app not on the New Architecture?"

Expo Router has been such a game-changer for me.

It's still incredible to see how fast I can go from nothing to an app with nested drawer and tabs 😱

I don't think I can ever go back to a different way of routing...

If you are not using it - why? What's stopping you?
