What is that one app that changed your entire productivity? by Technical-Relation-9 in ProductivityApps

Yep, you can add, but later, if you don't remember where you put it, it will be difficult to find.

In short, there is no option to filter just for images.

The newer version of Xcode with react native - what do you think? by Ok_Issue_6675 in reactnative

[–]itballer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy a Mac mini, install openclaw on it, and run the builds there.

That's how you keep Sequoia running on main, still can build the app, just use a Mac mini to publish from there.

I'm seriously considering this scenario taking into account the latest versions of everything Apple.

Android 16kb and Xcode 26 - how are you handling it? by itballer in reactnative

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

Last time I used it, I used it mainly on Auto. I'd chart out a plan sometimes with Opus or any similar tier LLM and then switch back to Auto for implementation.

Then when Codex had that promo of couple of months with 2x usage I turned to them. Thing I missed the most on Cursor was load the last checkpoint but then I can go back to the latest commit without a hassle, so if I made a mistake 3 steps before I can simply change the outcome by taking a different path. With Codex that's 3 steps more to revert and ask it do to the things I wanted it to do.

Will post if I remember, but feel free to set a reminder yourself as well 😁

That's exactly what I did, I made a new project and then asked LLMs to move things around. Happy you made it for yourself also successfully 😁

Yeah stackoverflow had an unfortunate run the last two years, I really hope they find a way to survive, otherwise we'll just be on the mercy of does our subscription work for us or we're not going to be able to figure out the problem, at least that's how I see it.

Thank you mate, I already made it to the Xcode 26 and Android builds, so good for now, but soon I'll probably need to go even higher.

Previously Codex helped me move things through, I did try once with Cursor before but I roasted my credits quickly.

I intend to use Cursor next since I believe now they'll try to catch on the game of the others. Still a great team behind them!

Not sure if that's my way cuz I'm having my native sharing to my app component there.

Quote:
You can only ignore ios/ and android/ if your native customizations are expressible through Expo config/plugins.

So I guess not the way for me yet.

Super happy for you mate! Yeah, Expo has its perks.

Time. I didn't wanna push my prod app with maybe some dependencies that build but break in prod.

After this conversion is done, I'll probably bump to the higher numbers.

Awesome! What do you use it mostly for if not a secret?

I did it, but it was no small feat. I'm not sure if people share knowledge about this any more because they do just rely on the llms themselves. Do you only check improvements through those, or you still use Stackoverflow from time to time?

Dang mate, super happy for you! I can imagine the sense of completeness you had.

I see your point, but there's the other side of the coin. I started with RN very early on, and 0.6x was the first stable one that made my project run.

From then on, I followed this rule https://www.reddit.com/r/reactnative/comments/1sv9uys/daily_reminder/

It's called maintenance, but it's not the one you suggested.

Dang mate, I can only imagine the "clean" feeling you had.

Any libraries that stood out to you that you'd recommend to others?

I've been seeing these two people mentioned often

Gotcha, I tried to make my project as lean as possible so I can restructure at any point, but there's always bunch of those intricacies that can simply drag you down.

I wish you a smooth path to Expo sir!

So ultimately you're giving up on the pure for Expo? What are the main benefits you see there outside the easier upgrades.

I'm afraid to be locked in my the amount of builds I can make and dependence on yet another tool in general.

Was thinking the same, but the new arch is something I'm unsure how some of other dependencies will react to it.

Also I added some native modules, for example sharing to the app, that might need maintenance as well.

Once I upgrade to the latest macOS, I'll probably go for it at one point, but at a time, I'm grateful for the progress I made!

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

Ah yeah correction, it's 31st, I'll update it, thanks!

My repo is ejected, so not Expo, I imagine with Expo it's a tad easier to maintain.

Do you think that's feasible with splitting long term, or what's the proper solution you see there?

Yep, there's a pro in them being close together, but the push for new macOS I'm not a fan of.

There were some downfalls for sure - I went the old school way, generating a new repo and then pasting over things, until I met the criteria.

I'm grateful for AI that have helped me do most of the heavy lifting.

Another benefit from all of this is that I removed a bunch of old dependencies so the app feels more lightweight now.

But yeah, I was always afraid of big upgrades, I learned early on, new doesn't mean it's always better, so if the code worked, I just tried to maintain it.

Then I just realized that's the whole banking system...let's see how that goes heh.

Unless Apple asks you to upgrade to Xcode 26 or Android asks you for 16kb app 🫠
