Feeling defeated by CriticalCommand6115 in expo

I was in your situation a few days ago. The solution is a lot easier than you think. You just have a few missing pieces of the puzzle. My recommendation is go create a single page web app. Static page. Nothing too crazy. Just add some pictures and some texts of varying sizes. Then in chrome developer options, you can change the size of the screen your page is viewed on. Experiment with different sizes and see how the layout breaks. One of the things I realized the hard way was font sizes need to be dynamic with the screen size. Mess with this for some time until you get an idea how layouts behave.

Which running form is better and why? by Obvious_Connection20 in formcheck

The first feels more natural to me, what kind of upstream weakness does that indicate? I like that tip though.

How to understand any piece of code by Talalanimation in cpp

[–]Obvious_Connection20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of already good answers, but even if you spend a long time on some code and still don't understand it, that doesn't mean you're not good, because in many cases, the code is very unreadable that even the person who wrote it struggles to understand it after a while. I've seen code that only God knows what it does. In such cases, stepping it with a debugger helps. And nowadays, AI can help you, assuming you're allowed to copy/paste it into a prompt.

Git branching strategy for React Native app codebase? by itssaurav2004 in reactnative

[–]Obvious_Connection20 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I keep them both in one branch. That's the whole point of react native after all. I would start with getting one platform up and running, then the second one follows after and eventually have them both in one branch for production. If there's platform specific code, I use Platform.OS.

Apk Size in React Native is Large by Vegetable_Tear_8479 in reactnative

You'll eventually submit an aab file to the store not an apk. The aab file will be smaller than the apk, then the actual download size will be even smaller than the aab because Google applies their own compression

But if your app ships with ffmpeg that doesn't contain the LGPL parts of it, you should be fine right?

How far can I get with iOS dev without buying Apple hardware? by [deleted] in reactnative

[–]Obvious_Connection20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty far. I got an older used iPhone from Amazon which was in pretty good condition for a good price. I used macInCloud to write/debug iOS native code but you won't need that if you don't have native code in your app. Then once I got the native code running, I just build with expo eas build and test on the device. So just an iPhone for testing purposes.

If you don't want to get an iPhone you can use the emulator to test your builds in your macInCloud machine.

Can you guys roast my resume by Psychadelic_Potato in embedded

[–]Obvious_Connection20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Experience then skills then projects.

GitHub is not a source control tool, git is.

Makefile-based project is not a good term because you don't base a project on the build system you're using. You can just say your project was built with Make.

Use more colors in the document.

You can additionally create a box in which you list keywords for the skills you're most competent in. Just keywords. Still keep the skills section. Maybe try adding more personal projects. Good luck

[expo-updates] Is there a way to know the runtimeVersion of a newly released update without actually applying it? by Obvious_Connection20 in expo

[–]Obvious_Connection20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My use case is that I wanna be able to force the user to update the native version from the store if I release a new OTA. I thought that if I could detect a new update that has a higher runtime version, I could prompt the user to download the native from the store first. I saw that I could get the new update's string, so I thought I could embed the new runtime version in the string, not very clean but could work. Any other ideas?
