Hi everyone!

This week has been calm on the React side, I couldn't really pick any headline despite various interesting releases and articles.

Once again, the React Native ecosystem is on fire, with Expo 52, but not only!

Last chance to answer the State of React 2024 survey that is closing soon. But don't worry, I'll now annoy you with another one that just opened 😃: State of JS 2024.

We'd be super grateful if you'd share this newsletter or support us here :

As always, thanks for supporting us on your favorite platform:

💸 Product for Engineers - The magic of small engineering teams
👀 React PR - Make prerendering always non-blocking: The Suspense siblings prerendering feature (delaying the React 19 release) is re-re-landing after a few back and forths. Turns out there was a hard-to-find one-line bug.
👀 react-server - Add initial README: The experimental package for creating custom React streaming server renderers now has some initial documentation. Provides 2 implementations: Fizz for SSR and Flight for RSCs. Advanced content, useful for framework authors looking to add RSC support.
👀 Next.js 15 PR - Add expireTag and expirePath APIs: The `revalidateTag` and `revalidatePath` APIs are being deprecated and renamed with more explicit names. Also it’s possible to pass multiple tags at once now.
👀 React Compiler case study - Adopting the compiler in Sanity Studio: Adapting the compiler improved their editor fps and helped surface bugs they didn’t know they had.
🐦 ”The first Turbopack prod build on Vercel is live”
📣 Framer Motion is now independent, introducing Motion: The popular React animation library plans to expand and support other frameworks.

📜 Uncontrolled or controlled: A matter of perspective: A component can both be controlled and uncontrolled. I decided to call this RSC: React Schrödinger Component.
📜 React is a programming language, and its rules are its syntax: Interesting thoughts on React rules you have to learn, and constraints that cannot be encoded into the programming language.
📜 The magic of keeping one level of abstraction per function: Encourages you to keep each function at a consistent level of abstraction. This includes React components, and I couldn’t agree more.
📜 React and FormData: Using Object.fromEntries won’t automatically handle multiple form inputs with the same name.
📜 Dynamically Generating PWA App Icons in the Next.js App Router: Dynamic generation of the PWA manifest to obtain different icons per environment.
📜 Make dangerouslySetInnerHTML Safer by Disabling Inline Event Handlers: React dangerouslySetInnerHTML will not execute scripts but can still execute inline handlers and introduce attack vectors. Make sure to sanitize your inputs.
📜 Supporting Offline Mode in TanStack Query: Using the Effect library.
📜 Conditional Props in React Using Type Discrimination
📜 Managing Interactive Demos in MDX
📜 Example of Using useSyncExternalStore with LocalStorage
📜 Vercel Makes Changes to Next.js To Simplify Self-Hosting

📦 Next.js AI Chatbot Template 3.0

Expo SDK 52

Just after the excellent React Native 0.76 milestone release, here comes Expo SDK 52, just as great. There’s a huge changelog and many expo package updates. My favorite items are:

New Architecture enabled by default for new projects, opt-in for existing ones. Expo Go now only supports the New Architecture.
Expo Router 4, React Navigation 7
Universal Server Components and Server Actions (experimental)
DOM Components with the ’use dom’ directive for incremental migrations or seamlessly integrating a WebView
React Native DevTools
Universal Tree Shaking (experimental)
React Compiler (experimental)
