Unfortunately, iOS 13 drops support for iPhone 5s and iPhone 6.[1] Last year, iOS 12 didn't drop support for any devices. The iPhone 6 is a very popular device, and was still sold by Apple less than two years ago. [1]: https://iosref.com/ios/

>Unfortunately, iOS 13 drops support for iPhone 5s and iPhone 6. That really is a bummer, I have an iPhone 6 and it's still alive and kicking.

What's the difference between a class and a function with local state? (Semantics aside, either way this behavior is implemented in React via useState or setState, MobX has nothing to do with it)

The venerable master Qc Na was walking with his student, Anton. Hoping to prompt the master into a discussion, Anton said “Master, I have heard that objects are a very good thing – is this true?” Qc Na looked pityingly at his student and replied, “Foolish pupil – objects are merely a poor man’s closures.” Chastised, Anton took his leave from his master and returned to his cell, intent on studying closures. He careful…

I would like to know more about Anton, and the irascible Qc Na.

Interesting move we see from the big players to more declarative UI toolkits. First Flutter, now this.

You have to give credit to react time which seems that started this paradigm of declarative and reactive ui frameworks. After that you got react native, flutter, jetpack compose and now swift ui. As for declarative (but not reactive) ui prior art is also Qt qml.

Both looked kind of like GTK (in a non-verbose language like Python) to me, too. Maybe I am seeing things.
