Efficient 3D graphics in React Native is now possible thanks to WebGPU, and it’s an opportunity you don't want to miss. While you may think of GPU as something challenging to handle, WebGPU, combined with tools like Three.js, Reanimated, and Worklets, makes breaking limits and achieving previously impossible become a reality.

WebGPU isn’t just about graphic, offering great computational power that can handle even AI computations directly within your React Native app. Moreover the ecosystem is rapidly evolving with solutions like TypeGPU, which are designed to help you navigate and feel at home in this exciting new space. If you're constantly seeking opportunities to make your app stand out and offer an unmatched, unique experience for your users, then this talk is for you.

It’s common to create animations and feel that something is still missing. The motion is there, but the app doesn’t quite feel alive—and it’s easy to settle for that. This talk explores how to move beyond defaults and craft immersive animations by combining Reanimated and Skia. We’ll dive into simple yet powerful techniques for refining motion, optimizing performance, and adding a few "secret ingredients" to surprise your users.

React Native Skia brings the Skia Graphics Library to React Native. Skia serves as the graphics engine for Google Chrome and Chrome OS, Android, Flutter, Mozilla Firefox, Firefox OS, and many other products.The talk will touch upon the following topics:

📲 We're so excited to speak with Evan Bacon from the Expo team!

He's worked on a bunch of different technologies that we use at Guild, and it was an absolute pleasure sitting down with him to chat about these technologies in more detail 📝

From wrangling Webpack & the latest developments with Expo App Services to ease deliverability across platforms to his experiments with App Clips, he's working on so many new and interesting things that it's great to have the time to sit down and chat with him! ✨
