Helping devs master React Native 🚀 | Founder Galaxies.dev 💫 | Sharing tips, tools, and tutorials to level up your mobile app game 📲 | YT https://www.youtube.com/@galaxies_dev 🔥https://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.devhttps://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3msg4wqjgx423I’ve tried a lot of React Native tools over the years. Most are fun for a week. A few made it into my daily workflow. I made a video about the ones I actually use to save time when building apps 👇06 Aug 2026 13:18 +0000at://did:plc:d74l3v7ehnp3d7xusv37iac7/app.bsky.feed.post/3msg4wqjgx423https://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3mqmecnv5ut2zTIL Expo now has its own SQLite DevTool 😍14 Jul 2026 13:56 +0000at://did:plc:d74l3v7ehnp3d7xusv37iac7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqmecnv5ut2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3mqjquyhk7c2tTesting a game is fun 🙃 You need to cover different platforms, different player levels, different devices... Think I need to figure out how AI can do all of that - any idea where to start the automation?13 Jul 2026 13:03 +0000at://did:plc:d74l3v7ehnp3d7xusv37iac7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqjquyhk7c2thttps://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3mqhacghdf62oI don’t think Tiny Harvest needs another feature right now. It needs more people to find it. That’s a much harder problem to solve.12 Jul 2026 13:01 +0000at://did:plc:d74l3v7ehnp3d7xusv37iac7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqhacghdf62ohttps://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3mqem7brj5z2oLong run this morning.

It's 95% about what you eat.

It’s about what AI has changed for me, why I’ve been building indie apps instead of courses lately, and why my YT channel is changing. Maybe we’re all figuring this out together.12 Jun 2026 12:58 +0000at://did:plc:d74l3v7ehnp3d7xusv37iac7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mo3s5h6tgh2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/galaxies.dev/post/3mncnuwbr4q2pAre you building apps with React Native?
