I added a “shake-to-snow” hidden feature to an iOS app that worked only on December 25th. You’d shake your iPhone or iPad and the entire screen would start snowing for 10 seconds.

What do devs here do when lack of motivation strikes hard? I have lots of projects in Swift and RN in progress but zero drive to touch them.

Asking for a friend ... 😂

Project I’m working on is required to be in React-Native...I’m a Swift/Obj-C developer. I wrote two lines of React code and then I have spent the last 3 hours trying to get dependencies for a single library installed to run the project again...

Tell me how React Native is a better and faster way to develop apps over native code???

This seems like a waste.

I’m a long time Objective-C and Swift developer...I’ve been asked to “research” a project using React Native.

It felt dirty to be writing an iOS app using JavaScript.

I’m still not sure why and how React Native is better/faster than native Swift.

Someone change my mind...

I just spent 32 minutes in a 15 minute scrum standup...

I think it's a bad sign when you walk out of a meeting thinking:

"Wow finally a meeting that wasn't a complete waste of time and didn't make me want to (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ "

*sigh*

Other Dev: I worked really hard over the weekend to get the issue fixed, I raised a PR but it has a zillion merge conflicts. Would you mind taking a look at it?

Me: Ok. *Changes base branch away from Master.*

Other Dev: Whoa! How’d you fix them that so fast???

Me: Experience.
