The main ROI from building /nook thus far has been picking up React Native for mobile development. The time spent will have been worth it for future products, regardless of nook’s success.

even more true now, we wrote so much bad app code in the iterations before this new version

Ah yeah always wondered how mobile nav works. Good to know! 

How has it been using expo?

Nothing too crazy, just took a while to grok mobile navigation patterns since its very different than web. Main improvements are from lazily loading more things post-navigation.

Also using expo router v3 is tricky since its pretty new and not many resources to go off out there.

What are the biggest lessons and patterns you’ve learnt so far?
