We explore the changing nature of shared cultural experiences, from the era of must-see TV to today's fragmented media landscape. This led us to ponder the value of communal viewing experiences and how streaming platforms might evolve to foster more connection.We then dove into a fascinating discussion on design, art, and the objects that surround us. Inspired by Bruno Munari's book "Design as Art," we contemplated the intersection of form and function, the concept of "quintessence" in everyday items, and the importance of creating beautiful, purposeful objects. This naturally flowed into an examination of our own collections, particularly focusing on typewriters.We wrapped up by reflecting on the emotional connections we form with certain objects, whether due to their design, provenance, or the memories they evoke. We considered how surrounding ourselves with meaningful, well-crafted items can fuel creativity and spark joy in our daily lives. Ultimately, we celebrated the beauty found in both the cutting-edge and the vintage, recognizing that true artistry transcends time and medium. -AI If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving us a rating and/or a review.

In this conversation, Simon Grimm interviews Giovanni Laquidara, a developer advocate at Amazon, about TV app development with React Native. Giovanni shares his experience working with React Native at Amazon and explains how React Native can be used to develop TV apps. He also discusses the challenges and considerations when developing for TV, such as the 10-foot UI, navigation, and remote control interaction. Giovanni recommends using separate repositories for different TV platforms and emphasizes the importance of designing for readability and accessibility in TV apps. Building TV apps with React Native requires handling fragmentation, focus management, and performance considerations. Integration with TV remotes can be challenging due to different key mappings. Testing on various platforms is crucial. TV apps often focus on streaming media, but there are opportunities for educational, fitness, and gaming apps. The developer experience is improving, and AI services may be integrated into TV apps in the future.Learn React Native - https://galaxies.devGiovanni LaquidaraGiovanni LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glaquidara/Giovanni Twitter: https://x.com/giolaqLinksGiovanni App.js talk: https://www.youtube.com/live/s0wn7qpBoB8?t=12161sBuild Expo apps for TV: https://docs.expo.dev/guides/building-for-tv/React Native tvOS Github: https://github.com/react-native-tvos/react-native-tvosIgniteTV template: https://github.com/react-native-tvos/IgniteTVTakeawaysReact Native can be used to develop TV apps for platforms like Android TV, Fire TV, and tvOS.Developing for TV requires considering the 10-foot UI, where users are typically three meters away from the screen.TV app navigation should be easy and seamless, with a focus on simplicity and avoiding complex interactions.Separate repositories are recommended for different TV platforms due to the fragmentation and differences in SDKs.Designing for readability and accessibility is crucial in TV app development.
