Hi everyone!

It looks like not everyone is on holiday: there's still plenty of news this week, both on the React and React-Native fronts.

I've got a question for you (you can email me back): would you prefer me to put direct links, or links to tweets?

• direct: 1-click access to the resource
• tweet: read related conversations

Hi everyone!

I've just got back from holiday in French Brittany 😎, so we're covering 2 weeks of news in this edition.

I thought it was going to be a quiet summer, but there have been quite a few releases and plenty of articles on Server Components! 😄

Hi everyone!

We've got some great releases this week, with Remotion 4 and Expo SDK 49 in beta. Next.js devs are working on DX optimizations. The articles on React + SVG and VisionCamera are super interesting.

Remotion 4 is on ProductHunt today: don't hesitate to vote! 👍

No newsletter next week, see you on 18 July 👋

Hi everyone!

This week we've had some news about Next.js, which has been getting a lot of criticism recently. Remix is also releasing its new Dev Server with Hot Data Revalidation.

On the React-Native side, the devs are having fun running the latest version on Vision Pro.

Check out React Jam: a contest to create video games in React that starts on 20 July. I'm on the jury.

Hi everyone!

This week has been busier than last. In particular, there have been 2 great releases, one of them I was eagerly waiting for to hit publish!

• Panda CSS: a very promising CSS-in-JS library
• React-Native 0.72: great improvements, particularly those related to Metro

Hi everyone!

Well, Dan Abramov is on holiday, which is probably why there hasn't been much happening this week in our beloved ecosystem 😅.

We do, however, have a few interesting articles and a potential official package for integrating React Server Components with Vite.

Hi everyone!

This week, we're celebrating 10 years of React! 🥳️

There have been quite a few interesting articles these last 2 weeks, particularly related to the complexity of introduced with Server Components. Dan Abramov has published some interesting resources on the subject. Remix and Redwood have announced their intention to support RSCs.

On the React-Native side, 3 conferences have been held recently and playlists are becoming available on YouTube. I had a great time at the React-Native-Connection, a new React-Native conference in Paris. Thanks to everyone who came and made this first edition a success.

So cool, the newsletter won a React Open Source Award at the React Summit conference! Thanks to everyone who voted for me, I wasn't expecting to win given the other nominees 😆

Hi everyone!

Here we are with 2 weeks of React news. There are quite a few good React articles, and also some very interesting React-Native announcements related to the conferences that took place recently. Between Remix Conf, App.js, Chain React... it's hard to keep up with everything, not to mention React-Native-Connection and React Summit next week!

Data fetching libraries like React-Query and Apollo are wondering about their integration with Server Components and Next.js App Router. We start to see more clearly.

The newsletter is skipping another week: next issue on June 7th 👋

Hi everyone!

As expected a new version of Next.js is out. Some React innovations that are better documented in the Next.js doc than in the React one, like form action, or the 2 new hooks useFormStatus and useOptimistic.

There are a lot of conferences at the moment. Remix Conf and App.js starting today: there will surely be some nice announcements.

The React-Native-Connection (Paris, June 1st) is also a few weeks away, and you can have -20% discount with the code "REACTHEBDO"!

I plan to skip next week's edition. Next issue on May 24th 👋

Hi everyone!

This week is "launch week" for Vercel which should make some nice announcements about React, Next.js and its cloud offer. We already have a small preview of what is coming very soon in Next.js!

There are quite a few great articles to read this week, including some interactive ones. I particularly liked to learn more about Million.js and its concept of "block virtual DOM".

On the React-Native side, the macOS platform is catching up with the release of v0.71, and Expo makes it easier than ever to use local native modules.

There are a lot of React conferences in the next weeks, we should have great announcements! By the way, you might see a flyer for my newsletter at one of them! I'm counting on you to convince your colleagues to sign up for the newsletter.

Speaking of conferences, React Summit (Amsterdam June 2-6) is the biggest React conference in the world. They offer us a 5% discount (code "ThisWeekInReact5").
