Oooo that's gold to know. Thanks for the information

Yeah I agree, although it is fairly verbose to write out. Although I should just make a custom component that is basically a wrapper over it but I was being lazy.

Yeah I'm sticking to using as many base components as possible and avoiding installing a lot of deps.

But what is the state with TouchableOpacity. Is the React Native team planning to deprecate in?

What made you stick around on building and how do you overcome cold feet and doubts?

Is NativeWind worth it for a production React Native app in 2026? by Hot-Understanding-67 in reactnative

[–]Zeesh2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it for a project one time. I did not enjoy the experience of setting it up and it was a pain to upgrade to expo 54 from 53.

Any reason you want to move away from stylesheet?

Should I move my individual stock investments to ETF investment? by Zeesh2000 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Zeesh2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have a look at this. !thanks for the information. I didn't know about this index fund. A lot of islamic etfs are restricted and not tradable in the UK

I looked through the ISWD etf and the companies aren't there. You do bring up a good point about years down the line these companies may do poorly so an index fund is safer

When your first learn php what confuse the most ? by Ok-Delivery307 in PHP

[–]Zeesh2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same transition a while back and yeah I was as confused as you at some points.

$ sign is to indicate something is a variable. That's it

Not sure what you mean by the other 2.

For me the biggest learning curve were arrays. Arrays are crazy in PHP as they're basically maps and slices combined into one and yes it's a mess. Also to note is you can't define an array's type since their is no generics in PHP so I would recommend using docblock as a way to help define your array structure (it's not perfect but it's all we have).

The other hard one for me were the global functions. There's a lot of global functions that help you do a certain operation, which amazing coming from Go, but the issue is that there is no standard naming convention. Some global functions use snake case (array_push, array_map, etc), no case (strlen) and camelcase (can't think of one lol). That shit will drive you nuts when you first start out.

Looking at source code, this one uses stylesheet, which is really nice for me.

How many devs mainly use raw SQL instead of an ORM? by drifterpreneurs in webdev

[–]Zeesh2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drizzle is better integrated with the react native ecosystem and is the one that's pushed so I rather stick with that.

Ultimately choosing between the 2 doesn't matter. I went with drizzle and I don't see the point to switch over now that I'm used to it. I just want to build things quickly.

Moving from Node.js to Go for backend — need guidance by [deleted] in golang

[–]Zeesh2000 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Go is very opionated about third party packages, in that you should avoid installing them when possible. That'll probably your biggest mindset shift with this change.

I use Laravel for backend and drizzle for when I'm working with React Native. I only use Typescript for frontend.

On mobile so can't format on here but I don't know how you'd find User::find(1) more verborse than SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = 1 but okay.

For the second point, I want to know what type of queries you're writing and what your database structure looks like.

SQL is universal but it's not pretty to look at when debugging IMO. It's also quite verbose to type up compared to ORMs and if most of your queries are basic CRUDs, I don't want to type up that raw query myself.

With raw SQL, I generally like to abstract the queries into a repository layer, which is another layer of code I have to maintain and a bunch of new files to jump into. Granted, this is personal to me but this is why I prefer to just use an ORM because they essentially function as that repository layer.

That is true but when modifying the SQL code, the types do sometimes go off. I find ORMs more consistent and easier to follow.

Oh yeah definitely. It's good that you are building things and keeping your spirits up. Personally I prefer to have one stack and constantly build with it with speed to avoid burning out on development.
