Workshops

Animations and Interactions – Intro

This workshop is designed to get you up and running with animations and interactions in React Native. You’ll learn how to implement subtle microinteractions that can make all the difference in terms of the user experience. Additionally, we’ll introduce you to the gesture system and layout animations, laying a solid foundation for further exploration of more advanced topics.

Kacper Kapuściak

Catalin Miron

Animations and Interactions – Advanced

It's where you become an animation expert in React Native. We’re going to dive deep into more advanced Reanimated concepts. You’ll learn how to deal with discrete and continuous style properties, deeply understand the Reanimated threading model, master scroll-based interactions, gestures, layout measurements, interpolations and more.

Kacper Kapuściak

Catalin Miron

Performance – analysis & optimization techniques

Identify bottlenecks and enhance the performance of your application by joining our in-depth workshops on profiling and optimization for React Native apps. You’ll learn best practices and gain practical skills that you can apply immediately to your project.

Bartek Błoniarz

Tomasz Zawadzki

Mobile & Web with React Native

Discover strategies for building universal apps with React Native that target both mobile and web platforms. This workshop will cover repository structure, routing, styling frameworks, animations, DOM components, and more. Learn how to leverage React Native APIs, which are increasingly converging with Web, to maximize code sharing and build high-quality apps tailored to multiple platforms.

Błażej Kustra

Mateusz Titz

Brownfield Integrations: Gradle, Cocoapods and the Brownfield Enigma

Learn how to integrate React Native into an existing mobile app! During the workshop we’ll cover the principles of brownfield integration, its configuration, practical challenges and more. You can expect learning how to create a custom gradle task to modify your Android build, write ruby script to inject your logic into Xcode build settings, debug problems encountered in both build systems, open your React Native instance in Android Fragment, attach UIViewController with React Native to iOS view hierarchy and to replace a native view with shared JSX components.

Mariusz Stanisz

Wojciech Lewicki

3d graphics with WebGPU, Three.js & Reanimated

Bring your app to another dimension by learning how to write and integrate WebGPU 3D animations into your React Native project.

Krzysztof Piaskowy

Production-ready Patterns for EAS Update

Explore the inner workings of over-the-air updates and learn best practices to help you get the most out of EAS Update. Learn strategies for leveraging native fingerprints to target JavaScript updates to builds with compatible native runtimes, how to build preview deployments into your continuous integration and testing workflow, and see how to leverage new features in the expo-updates JS API to ensure users receive your updates as soon as possible.

Quinlan Jung

Gabriel Donadel

Fine-tuning for the “Native Feel”

React Native apps and websites already use platform UI components, of course, but a lot of what makes an app or a website look and feel truly at home in its native environment is up to how the developer uses their toolbox. Let’s learn how to employ platform-appropriate components, styles, UX, navigation patterns, and more to create cross-platform apps that nonetheless feel cohesive within Android, iOS and Web.
