It's a bit...embarrassing? Scary? But it has become my reality. And I guess it will become reality for many of us over the next 6-12 months.

@cyburns88 I do, but I'm bad at making sense of the numbers :D

@schlimmson Intersting. Do you not use a product analytics tool like Posthog or something?

AI one-shot a retention analysis for Tiny Harvest 🔥 These are the moment where I truly love the progress of AI. This would have taken me hours, if I had actually pulled together the right data and libraries for the charts. It took less than 3 minutes.

For anyone interested, this was my (single!) prompt: "I need to understand where players drop off, on which level most players are etc so we can improve the retention. Add a new page to our admin-web/ app with a chart that shows level distribution of all InstantDB players. Also include more stats that could be helpful to visualise or understand retention, like at which level players were last online, or how many players were last online on a day. Plan this feature first with focus on improving retention and visualising numbers so we can make meaningufl changes based on the data"

Time to promote your product. 🚀 Share that product URL!!

I built a Fire TV app with React Native 👀 Not mobile. Not web. An actual TV app using VegaOS. Here's how to get started 👇

Spent hours debugging a crash in my app. Turns out it was caused by the iOS Reduce Motion accessibility setting. A reminder that real-world users run your app in environments you never test 😅

@dariuscosden Looking forward to it!

Just filmed my first YT video for the new channel One of my biggest superpowers is the ability to film videos and be in front of the camera This is the only way I know how to do marketing so I'm doing it for my app Vid should come out tmr!

Thanks @AmazonAppDev for sponsoring this video! 🔥 Try Vega OS: fandf.co/4rsfxs4

In this video we explore React Native development for Fire TV using Amazon’s new Vega SDK. You’ll learn: - What Vega OS - How to install the Vega SDK and use Vega Studio + Vega Developer Tools - How to build your first Vega OS app with React Native youtube.com/watch?v=Z3FoZ4…

Can anyone recommend a good designer for app store images who is really focused on conversion?

@wicak_radityo It's a category of games where usually something happens while you are idle.

@schlimmson Nice. Whats idle-game mean btw

I built a mobile idle game in under 60 minutes this weekend. It's completely terrible. But shipping something playable in an hour with React Native + Expo is still wild.

@Romshrom Haven't used Capacitor in a while. If you want the most native user experience, use React Native.

@schlimmson Any take on using AI with React Native than working with web technologies (capacitor etc.)?

I feel honored to be the first episode - had a lot of fun recording this 👇

@jpudysz @codemaskcom Impressive!

Can a backend developer build a mobile game with zero prior experience? 🤔 We ran that experiment at @codemaskcom and the result was honestly surprising! Using only Codex 5.3 and Claude, a single developer shipped a full mobile game built with React Native, Skia, Reanimated, and Uniwind. He didn’t write or modify a single line of code‼️ UI and graphics came from stock assets. Music was generated with @ElevenLabs . The app is already live on the stores and ready to play. This is what AI-assisted development actually looks like 🤯

We have a new feature: Rico. Rico is a RevenueCat agent that can - answer questions about your your MRR, churn and retention - benchmark agaist SOSA apps data All this from the comfort of your company's Slack Join the waitlist 👇 revenuecat.com/feature/ai-age…

@JoeAverbukh Absolutely

@schlimmson Building something people want is tough!
