Apple Sign-In in React, without provider-specific flows

IronTony — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 13:07:38 +0000

Adding Apple Sign-In to a React app often ends up being handled differently from other providers.

Different setup steps, different abstractions, and usually some provider-specific logic.

I wanted something more consistent.

So I added Apple Sign-In support to react-auth 🍎

What it does

It works across:

📱 React Native
⚡ Expo
🌐 Web

With a single goal:

💡 One API across all platforms

→ no provider-specific flows
→ no per-platform handling

Focus

🧩 minimal setup
🔁 consistent interface
⚙️ predictable behavior

Instead of treating Apple as a special case, it follows the same pattern as other providers in react-auth.

If you're working on auth or managing multiple providers, I’d really appreciate your feedback.

🚀 Google Sign-In for React Native & Expo & Web without the Headaches

IronTony — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 12:15:59 +0000

If you've ever tried implementing Google Sign-In in React Native, you already know:

it's... not fun.

Between confusing configs, inconsistent docs, and platform quirks, auth quickly becomes a time sink instead of a solved problem.

So we built something better.

Introducing React-Auth Google Sign-In

A clean, Expo-friendly/React Native/Web Google authentication solution designed for modern apps.

Why it’s different:
⚡ Works seamlessly with Expo
🧩 Minimal setup (no config maze)
🧼 Clean, predictable API
🔐 Built with real-world production use in mind

No more stitching together outdated guides or fighting native configs.

Just install, integrate, and move on with your app.

If you're building with React Native + Expo + Web, this might save you hours (or days).

Would love feedback from the community 🙌

Introducing VoltRN CLI: a developer focused CLI for React Native/Expo

IronTony — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 09:08:46 +0000

Starting a new React Native/Expo project often means repeating the same setup and configuration steps.

I wanted something simpler and faster, so I built VoltRN CLI.

VoltRN CLI is an open source CLI designed to help developers start and manage React Native/Expo projects with less friction.

Key features

⚡ Fast project scaffolding
🧩 Feature adders for common tools and libraries
🏗 Screen and component generators
🔧 Project doctor to verify your development environment
📦 Opinionated templates for common stacks

The goal is to keep the developer experience simple and productive.

🚀 Introducing Rozenite Navigation Inspector — inspect navigation in Expo Router/React-Navigation apps

IronTony — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 13:50:46 +0000

🧭 What Rozenite Navigation Inspector does

🗺️ Sitemap view
Browse all available routes generated from React-Navigation/Expo Router’s compile-time route tree, with visited-route tracking so you can see which routes have actually been navigated to at runtime.

✨ Route autocomplete
Get fuzzy-matched route suggestions by combining:

the sitemap (compile-time routes)
the navigation tree (runtime structure)
the device route list

This makes navigating and testing routes much faster, especially in larger apps.

🧩 Dynamic route detection
Dynamic segments like [id] and [...slug] are automatically detected and highlighted in the sitemap, including their parameter names, making it easier to understand and reason about dynamic paths.

🔍 Navigation event inspection
Observe navigation events as they happen to better understand push, pop, and route change behavior at runtime.

🧪 Project status & feedback

This is an early-stage open-source project, and I’m actively looking for:

Feedback on the current feature set
Testers using different Expo Router setups and app sizes
Bug reports, edge cases, and improvement ideas (via issues)

If you find the tool useful, please consider ⭐️ starring the repository — it’s free to use, but stars really help with visibility and motivation.

The project is hosted on GitHub:

Questions, suggestions, and discussions are more than welcome.
Thanks for checking it out 🙏

🎉 New Plugin: DevTools for Zustand in Rozenite (React-Native)

IronTony — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 08:51:21 +0000

Hey everyone! 👋
I just released a small open-source plugin that brings time-travel state inspection and live store debugging to Zustand stores in React Native via Rozenite DevTools.

Repo: https://github.com/IronTony/rozenite-zustand-devtools
NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/rozenite-zustand-devtools

🔍 What it does
This plugin adds a dedicated Zustand panel to your Rozenite DevTools:

📊 Real-time state inspection: see your store state update live
🧠 Table & JSON views: structured key/value and raw JSON toggle
🔎 Collapsible nested objects: explore deep state easily
🎨 Color-coded values: helpful visual cues (strings, numbers, booleans, null)
📁 Store filtering & timestamps: find and monitor stores efficiently
📋 Copy state JSON: copy formatted snapshot to clipboard
🚫 Production-safe: no devtools code bundled in production builds

No middleware patching, no Redux DevTools server, and no extra store setup. It works directly with Zustand’s .getState() and .subscribe() APIs.

If you find this useful, I’d really appreciate a ⭐ star on GitHub, it helps a lot with visibility and motivation.

If you run into any issues, have feature ideas, or notice anything odd:

👉 Open an issue on GitHub, or
👉 Ping me directly on GitHub, happy to help or discuss improvements.

Feedback from real usage is exactly what I’m looking for 🙏
