092 - React Native 0.84, Hermes V1 & A TanStack React Native Framework?!
React Native 0.84 is here (with Hermes V1 by default), WebAssembly is landing inside Hermes, Expo is experimenting with AI “Agent Skills,” and there might be a new React Native framework coming from TanStack 👀
Plus I share an honest update on Tiny Harvest hitting $2k/month, negative reactions to my AI crash course, and why I think this tension is actually healthy.
Let’s dive in.
