Why This Topic Matters OTP (One-Time Password) verification is a critical security feature in modern mobile applications. Whether you're building a fintech app, healthcare platform, or any service requiring user authentication, implementing OTP verification efficiently can be the difference between a smooth user experience and frustrated users abandoning your app. The react-native-otp-auto-verif
Introduction Building a mobile application that handles sensitive financial data — crypto transactions, KYC verification, gift cards — means security is not an afterthought. It is a core deliverable. During the development of a cross-platform fintech application, one of the non-negotiables on the security checklist was runtime application self-protection (RASP). After evaluating our options, we
React Native's New Architecture — JSI, Fabric, and TurboModules — has been "coming soon" for long enough that some teams wrote it off as vaporware. It shipped. It is now default in new React Native projects. And it meaningfully changes how the framework works at the performance-critical boundaries between JavaScript and native code. This post is not a getting-started guide. It is an honest account
It's a one-line item on the roadmap. "Send a push notification when X happens." Estimate is two days, three if the backend doesn't have FCM credentials yet. There's a library for it. The library is the visible part. The other 90% is platform lifecycle, registration state machines, race conditions with navigation, payload archaeology, and a half-dozen iOS and Android quirks. Nobody writes them down
If you've tried to follow any AI coding discussion in the last six months, you've probably felt like everyone suddenly started speaking a dialect you never signed up to learn. "Vibe coding." "Agentic workflows." "Context windows." "Prompt engineering." The jargon is multiplying faster than JavaScript frameworks, and that's saying something. Matt Pocock — who you might know from his TypeScript educ
GitHub Copilot just got a lot more complicated — and not in a good way. If you tried to sign up for Copilot Pro recently and hit a wall, that's not a bug. GitHub quietly paused new sign-ups for Copilot Pro, Pro+, and Student plans starting in late April 2026. No end date announced. No workaround offered. Just a message and a door that won't open. That alone would be worth covering. But they made t
Anthropic now ships at least three different memory models inside the Claude product family, and they don't behave the same way. Claude.ai has a chat memory feature for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users that summarizes prior conversations and injects that summary into new chats. Claude Code has CLAUDE.md files plus a separate "auto memory" directory the model writes to itself, both loaded at se
Hi everyone, Konrad and Kacper from Software Mansion here! 👋 A quiet week — no big headlines — but still a couple of solid articles and releases in the React ecosystem. On the React side, the WIP React Compiler in Rust is being tested at Meta. We also have a 18-month retrospective on the React Compiler, a deep dive into how React streams UI, and a step-by-step guide for migrating from Radix UI to
