Got native iOS bottom tabs in RN to become opaque on scroll to edge, thanks to @kwasniew.ski Achieved the native behavior where the header or bottom tab fades at the scroll edge. Header's code is inspired by @bacon.bsky.social's tweet. Looks good, but needs a few workarounds. See it here 👇

Can it be done in React Native, yes! At WWDC 2024, Apple added a new API for creating custom UI effects using Metal shaders. I wanted to see if you could do the same with React Native. With react-native-skia, you can! Left is the Apple demo, right is skia on react-native-macos 😃

Success! For Christmas this year, I got React Native Skia working on macOS! Along the way I learned quite a bit about Shaders, WebGPU, and just how extensively Skia is used. It's such an interesting space! I'm glad there are still new things to learn in UI dev 😎

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! github.com/callstackinc...

Another TIL 📚 When defining platforms in your library .podspec file it's better to specify them individually. I thought it didn't make any difference until I ran into some weird compilation issues on macOS due to some odd flags passed by cocoapods 🫠 Thanks @saadnajmi.bsky.social 🙏
