It feels pretty silly to protect UI design to that extent. It’s as if I started designing a website for a client, someone passing by took a screenshot and showed someone my design. Then I sue that person for… not keeping design secrets? I dont understand how apple can prove any damages besides maybe being owed the ad money on that video. And even that is a stretch, and not worth the lawyers’ time in my opinion.

Nailed it

I really recommend nativewind to solve pretty much every gripe I have with styling react native, if you still want to give it a chance. Expo for instant cross platform updates by just publishing updated JavaScript (no more publishing updatdes in app store and play store!) Also, yup and Formik for form validation and react query for API calls. With these minimal libraries react native becomes a beast.

It’s very easy to compare this to The Prohibition but the reality is alcohol is much more popular than tobacco. For someone who doesn’t drink, understanding the appeal of drinking in a social setting is way easier. With this law I don’t think there is a need for a black market of tobacco like there was with alcohol as it will still be available to purchase, just more controlled. The effect will be a reduction in exposure in younger generations that simply won’t find the need to start smoking. This works and in my province of Quebec since laws have been getting stricter the only people that still smoke are poor or raised by heavy smoker parents.
