Shameless Plugs

This week on nickyt.live, Ramón Huidobro joined me to discuss React Native and Expo!

We started building a brag board/kind words app called the "Kind Words" app, where you can log the good things people say about you on those days when you're not feeling your best.

Here's a highlight from the stream. The full recording will be dropping sometime next week.

Twitch

Twitch is the world's leading video platform and community for gamers.

I had my inaugural monthly stream on the CFE YouTube channel this week! If you want to learn more about debugging JavaScript in Node.js and the browser, check it out! Big ups to Brian Rinaldi for getting this collaboration going!

If you aren't already, subscribe and give a like to the video and CFE YouTube channel! 😎

Coming up this week, I'll be hanging with Matija Sosic, Founder at wasp-lang. We're going to dig into Wasp and its core philosophies. We'll also play with the GPT Web App Generator created using Wasp.
