- Huge day for @expo . We just made a preview of EAS Update available. It lets you deploy your mobile apps like you would a website. Makes things possible like: - continuous deployment - incremental rollouts - rollbacks - get a bugfix to all your users in seconds, etc.
- Amazing to see how fast BlueSky was able to get a v1 website and app built by a small team using Expo and React and RN. Makes such a difference when you can write once and put most of your energy into product instead of platforms.
- Gemini has gotten really good. I use it regularly now. Especially for summarizing YouTube videos and generating vector art.Google's AI models have been racking up the Ws. Best small model: Gemma 27B Best context window: 2M toks Best video understanding: Gemini (all) Best image editing: Gemini 2 Flash Best cost-quality tradeoff: Gemini 2 Flash Best video gen: Veo 2 Best audio gen product: NotebookLM

- Expo apps making it to #1 in the App Store charts starting to be a habit
