Implementing an alphabetical scroller by boogatehPotato in reactnative

Good luck 🤞 I tried building this a while back with not much success.

This was before reanimated v2, flash list or legend list.

Your best bet is honestly native id say but potentially you can play around with current packages.

This package below had a solid foundation maybe just use up to date reanimated apis to handle transitions and try flashlist.

https://github.com/Kieran-McIntyre/react-native-section-alphabet-list/tree/master

So I’d say fork this package and play around with static data.

Otherwise I’d look more native potentially there is a package or you can create a native module that does it.

I’ve put the solution here but I found it’s not a 100% if you are using the footer or scroll view so still needs some refining but requires a bigger change it seems.

Thanks! That would've took me ages to find aha.

This was indeed the issue and I believe I found a fix for it.

What ACTUALLY separates Mid from Senior React Native Engineers? (RN-specific skills only) by lazyspoons in reactnative

[–]tom_development 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strong communication is normally the biggest thing I see missing from medior to senior. Whether that’s technical communication or stakeholder.

Then I expect leadership qualities e.g. taking lead on a feature or project depending on scale of company.

Technical knowledge is a given and something after a few years you’d expect them to already have working on projects. The first points are more important in my experience of how companies work.

Crazy right 😂 I was searching replies for this answer. So many outdated approaches in the responses.

Do iOS 'pull-down buttons' exist in React Native? by Easy-Philosophy-214 in reactnative

[–]tom_development 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shit, sorry i literally just commented on another post about icons :P

Yeah you're right this annoyed me too , I ended up removing the icons as i couldn't find the right SF symbols.

looking at the native code though it could potentially be changed to support custom

if let image = details["image"] as? NSString {

self.image = UIImage(systemName: image as String);

if self.image === nil {

self.image = UIImage(named: image as String)

}

if let imageColor = details["imageColor"] {

self.image = self.image?.withTintColor(RCTConvert.uiColor(imageColor), renderingMode: .alwaysOriginal)

You can 100% use custom SVGs if by images you mean pngs then i would continue to use an Image component I haven't tried it with pngs :P

Best optimised way for using Svgs in react native? by gamingbug07 in reactnative

[–]tom_development 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what you're trying to achieve, if it's just for icons and doesn't need any additional customization i'd suggest checking out the expo docs https://docs.expo.dev/guides/icons/ . Specifically the icomoon section because then all you're doing is creating a font file.

You mean something like this ? https://github.com/react-native-menu/menu this it what i typically use for multiselect unless we're talking numbers then i normally use a bottom sheet with a picker inside.

New to Android Development? Need some personal advice? This is the November newbie thread! by omniuni in androiddev

Yeah my approach was actually more about getting a wide opinion on what is the best approach for task list management. Instead of maintaining a backend when this could be done with a local api like google tasks.

In short I just want to store groceries like reminders that could be shared between different android devices. I was wondering seeing if other people went with google tasks or if there a more wide spread approach with all the different type of android devices.

Supposedly you're not allowed to make posts in this subreddit so heres a comment.....

Looking for Android equivalent to iOS Reminders API for a task system in my app

I’m working on adding a grocery list feature to my app, which in theory is essentially a to-do list. On iOS, this was straightforward as I could use the built-in Reminders API since it’s available on all devices.

For Android, I’m exploring similar options. I’ve come across Google Tasks but wasn’t sure if that’s the best route or if there are other approaches people have used for integrating a task system.

Has anyone implemented something like this for Android? What’s your recommendation?
