React Universe On Air

✨ In September 2024, The React Native Show has become React Universe On Air ✨ Welcome to the latest episode of Callstack's Coffee Talks, where we bring you fresh updates and insights from the world of React Native. This episode was recorded during Callstack’s internal learning and development day, which allowed Łukasz Chludziński (https://hubs.li/Q01MYW0r0) to talk to a bunch of exciting guests: - Michał Pierzchała (https://hubs.li/Q01MYXzM0) - Aleksandra Pytko-Włodarczyk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/aleksandra-pytko/) - Łukasz Walczak (https://hubs.li/Q01MYY7V0) - Rafał Zakrzewski (https://hubs.li/Q01MYYrV0) As the content of this episode revolves around Open Source, we begin by explaining how Callstack pays it forward to the community with involvement in OSS projects. Then, we move on to the first topic: RFC for the proposal for natively supporting Expo Config Plugins by React Native core. This proposal has been released as part of our R&D program.
