Hey Readers!
A lot is happening in the world of React Native lately and I'm happy to tell you that this is a super issue with so many great articles, modules, updates, and...
My good buddy Gant Laborde was lucky enough to get to go to React Conf 2017. While most of us might be jealous, we don't have to be because he wrote two blog posts that summarize each day...and all of the talks are online and just a click away below!
Please enjoy!
PS I'm happy to announce the React Native Newsletter is on Twitter @RNNewsletter

Moving Beyond Animations to User Interactions at 60 FPS in React Native
"The async nature of the React Native bridge incurs an inherent performance penalty...Modern animation libraries, like Animated, address this by minimizing passes over the bridge. User interactions, where UI continuously reacts to the user’s gestures, are a step further. How can we run those at 60 FPS?"

Better List Views in React Native
"Many of you have started playing with some of our new List components already after our teaser announcement in the community group, but we are officially announcing them today! No more ListViews or DataSources, stale rows, ignored bugs, or excessive memory consumption - with the latest React Native March 2017 release candidate (0.43-rc.1) you can pick from the new suite of components what best fits your use-case, with great perf and feature sets out of the box..."
