What are pages on BlueSky? ☺️ I dunno why but I always love this green retro style design.

We gave a sneak peek of Skia Graphite, a new backend of Skia that runs on top of WebGPU. This experimental version of React enables 2d and 3d primitives to be nicely composable with one another at zero-cost just like on the Web.

WebGPU has inspired a cascade of improvements to React Native Skia:
⚡️ Up to 3x performance improvement on animation time and time to first animation frame.
🛠️ 98% of Android crashes fixed and a 13% smaller codebase
📺 Now available on macOS, tvOS, and node.

That was a great presentation 👏

Wish I had more time to play with Skia and WebGPU 😭

Not related to Skia really, simple stuff like pure js matrix multiplication and other algorithmic tasks that feel very slow on release mode on mid-low end Android devices.

Faster Hermes would change everything for me.
