Nate Wienert - Tamagui: A performant UI Kit for Web + Native

This week we talk to Nate Wienert about Tamagui, a UI kit for building cross platform (web + mobile) react native apps. Tamagui is a full stack, component kit style system, and optimizing compiler that bridges native and web. With a host of features like cross platform animations, themes, and a studio, Tamagui is a great way to build cross platform apps. Join us as we talk about the challenges of building a cross platform UI kit, and how Tamagui solves them.

Coming from a project that suffers a lot of performance issues due to NativeBase, Tamagui feels like a breath of fresh air. The default themes being pretty good is also a big plus. We don't have to change the theme much anymore, because it looks pretty good already.

You are right nate the new world is going to be universal apps, especially with ai coming into the frame in 2024, we are not taking about copilot. Looking forward to work with your library in the next couple of weeks with expo 49 with my devs. Many thanks for your efforts amazing.
