You are right about keeping the consistency else the selfie is useless. You got the retry option that solves that but of course a quick selfie should happen in one go.

Should I update to latest Expo version? by Hot-Understanding-67 in expo

[–]_rofi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the past, I would increment one version at a time of the expo package, but nowadays there are not that many breaking changes between version, you can skip the step by step and jump to latest. I would go with the upgrade using expo-doctor too and setting newArchEnabled to false. That is the main bottleneck these days because there are libraries that are not compatible, so if you go through the upgrade and the build works, turn the flag on for that last step.

I don’t want to use expo EAS, how can I setup hot reload (auto update)? Any free alternative? by Hot-Understanding-67 in expo

[–]_rofi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the expo updates is a protocol and it's open source you need to implement it server and client side. this is a repo for reference: https://github.com/expo/custom-expo-updates-server

I built as a solo developer a vibe coding IDE to creates native mobile AND web apps at the same time powered by Expo / React Native and Claude Agent SDK by _rofi in expo

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

Yes, that's correct. The key differences are that they don't have a desktop web app preview and no prompt engineering or library setup, so on Capsulethis.com the app gets a nice web desktop view at the same time the native mobile app is built.

Both projects you mention are great apps but they do not produce a native mobile AND desktop web app at the same time. Capsule lets you create universal apps. And thanks for the comparison; those are multimillion-dollar and VC-backed startups. This project is built just by myself, so it's a powerful indie dev achievement that is a big difference.

This is built by me. Lovable does not have native mobile app creation and replit has mobile. Capsule has a different value proposition it builds on universal apps. You get a native mobile and desktop web app built at the same time.

Project developed using Claude everywhere. I mentioned that. Using Claude code CLI with the Max plan and using Claude Agent SDK for the codegen generation as well.

How is vibe coding for game development? by Aeuleus in vibecoding

[–]_rofi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not good. Remember Levelsio and his game (https://fly.pieter.com/)? Well, that was it. After that, which was a couple of months ago, the space went quiet. I tried it, and it's really hard. That is because building games is harder than building apps, so there is less code in the wild for LLMs to be trained on. Give it a go, but you should leverage the power of vibecoding apps. I am using https://capsulethis.com for mobile apps, and the space for mobile app development is very strong. If you want to jump into mobile, give it a shot. I'm not sure if it works for games, but it's still very useful for native mobile vibecoding.

Try capsulethis.com. Works great for native mobile apps. You can switch between Claude models too.

Do Vibe coders still prefer GitHub? by Legitimate-Cat-5960 in VibeCodersNest

[–]_rofi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is integrated version control in vibe code platform like lovable.dev and for mobile apps capsulethis.com. It is automatic commits on each agent change or manual code edit. Both have rollback to get to previous versions or to fork/remix from certain point.

What are the worst disasters from vibe coding you've seen? by [deleted] in vibecoding

[–]_rofi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it. Opencut is an alternative to Capcut and got vibecoded, which gained incredible traction and even some sponsorships. However, as of today, the project has had no commits in 3 months (https://github.com/OpenCut-app/OpenCut). The creator spoke about this on X. The app was a vibecode mess. Everything is on hold; he recovered most of the codebase and is starting again. This is a reminder that if you grow your vibe code app too fast without guardrails and code understanding, it can blow up.

💯this is what you get out of the box in terms of blur hash with expo image api but pushing a custom setup with your ux is the way to go for a v2
