shopify bet on react native, and it paid off

Five years of React Native at Shopify (2025) - Shopify

Five years ago, we announced that React Native (RN) is the future of mobile at Shopify. Today, we are excited to share the progress we've made, lessons learned, and what the future holds. To recap, we decided to switch to RN for 3 main reasons: Write it once - Stop building the same features twice, once on iOS and once on Android Talent portability - Enable devs to work fluently across iOS, Android, and Web Ship more value - Spend more time delivering value to users instead of chasing feature parity We’re happy to share that our transition has been quite successful: Not having to build the same features twice has given us a step change in productivity Engineers are able to work across web and mobile allowing teams to do more with the same number of people and unlocked new growth opportunities Maintaining feature parity between iOS and Android has become a non-issue, freeing up capacity to ship a lot more value Our apps are blazing fast (<500ms screen loads) and stable (>99.9% crash-free sessions) We continue to leverage native wherever it is the best tool for the job, giving us the best of both worlds Over the past 5 years, we have migrated all our apps to React Native. Instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach to do so, each team chose when and how to migrate their app. This allowed them to continue shipping features while also aligning with our strategy of leveraging RN. What did we learn? React Native apps are fast We care very deeply about performance at Shopify. As our CEO Tobi Lutke says, “not all fast software is great, but all great software is fast”. The biggest question we had while switching to RN and the main reason we didn’t do it sooner was whether we’d be able to achieve our performance goals with it. Before making the decision to switch, we did extensive prototyping which led to promising results. We also saw all the work that Meta

Competition is very healthy for your business.

It should not scare the life out of you.

You are not going to go broke. (Unless you refuse to restrategize anyway).

It keeps your brain active and on the lookout.

And if you are wise enough, there are many things you can learn from competition -- Many lessons and strategies.

Focus on making your product or service better. Find out what works for others and what doesn't.

Then find out what works for you and what doesn't.

Tell me what you think. I'll be waiting in the comments! ❤️✨

Study how Warpcast implemented the minimized mini app.

It seems it's using Bottom Sheet instead of Bottom Sheet Modal to avoid auto unmount, then save the app metadata and render the component above the bottom tabs. That's really quick and beautiful design. @ashoat.eth 🫡

I just tried this approach in Recaster.

If you're upgrading from React Native 0.76 -> 0.77 / 0.78 be careful

You might have noticed the template changed from Obj-C++ to Swift, but it's not just a syntax change

If you're sticking with AppDelegate .mm in your project, you still need to add the lines from the release notes:

my first non-crypto app just launched on the App Store!

a close friend of mine has a neurodivergent kid and told me there were no apps like this, so I took it as an opportunity to play with WebGPU in react native

new skills acquired:
- IAP with revenuecat and paywalls
- onboarding best practices
- App Store screenshots best practices
- ASO (already ranked top 100 for "neurodivergent")

I really want to start my next mini app idea, but sora image gen is so good that I need to arbitrage that, so for the next couple of weeks I'll be heads down working on a native app with these new skills as the foundation

Should I update the thirdweb expo starter to latest react-native (0.78+) ?

Wondering if there's some incompatibilities with popular libraries that ppl might want to use on top, anyone here knows?
