Running AI in the cloud is expensive and risky. ☁️ That’s why we’ve put together a list of 6 top local AI models you can run right on your device – with full privacy, speed, and control. 😎

Your React Native app + React Native Executorch + a few lines of code = LLMs up and running in seconds. 🪄 Check out the docs and get started 👉 docs.swmansion.com/react-native-e…

Running AI in React Native apps just got a lot more stable and faster! ✨ React Native ExecuTorch 0.5.0 brings: ✅ Up to 2x faster Whisper performance on iOS ✅ C++ JSI bindings for zero-copy data transfer ✅ LLM structured output using Zod schemas ✅ CLIP model for image →

🚨BREAKING: Google Chrome just leveled up with AI. Chrome's new AI can instantly understand and describe anything displayed on your screen. Here're 11 powerful Chrome features you'll wish you knew sooner:

LLMs are great with language, but not always with facts. They hit cutoffs, miss context, and sometimes just make things up. 🤖 Retrieval-Augmented Generation helps with that by pulling in relevant data. In our new post we broke down how it works, and where it helps (and hurts).

.Iwo Plaza | TypeGPU invites you 🔥to his talk: "TypeScript on the GPU – Bridging the Gap Between Realms." Can’t wait to see you at JSNation US, Nov. 17 & 20!

We’re excited to share that NVIDIA is investing in ElevenLabs, with support from Jensen Huang. Last week’s U.S. state visit to the UK strengthened AI ties. With our roots growing deeper in both places, this partnership and conversation were the perfect way to cap it off.

We don’t have flying cars in 2025 yet, but we do have on-device Stable Diffusion in React Native! 👀 Coming soon to React Native ExecuTorch 🚀

Another week, another issue 😄 This week, along with Krzysztof Piaskowy we've conducted another issue for This Week in React. As always, we brought you lots of awesome stuff to read. Fans of TanStack and React Router will especially like this one 🤠 Enjoy! 😋

Join us for a live stream with Michał Czernek & Norbert Klockiewicz this Wednesday at 5:00 PM CEST 🚀 We’ll cover ✅ Pros and cons of on-device AI ✅ Using React Native ExecuTorch in projects ✅ Where to get language models and how to swap them for existing use cases ✅ RAG in React Native

2x faster LLM inference coming to ExecuTorch soon. Went from 25 tok/s to 62 tok/s on the same prompts. Patch for react-native-executorch drops in a few days 👀

Not only is it faster, but also uses less energy! Faster AND more efficient? YES 🤯! Reaching 91 tokens/sec on iPhone 16 pro for Qwen3 0.6b 🚀 Check out latest version 0.5.8 here npmjs.com/package/react-…

🔥The future of AI apps is on the device. With react-native-executorch (from Software Mansion), you can run models locally in your Expo app: ♢ Private by design ♢ Zero API fees ♢ Works offline ♢ Instant response Read how it works in the blog below from Maciej Rys and

just got my hands on the new iPhone 17 Pro and the perf is insane 90 tokens/s using quantized Qwen 0.6B with react-native-executorch more performance updates on the way 👀

Wspólnie z Meta i 5 innymi firmami zakładamy React Foundation!⚛️ Tworzymy nową organizację, dzięki której będziemy realnie wpływać na kierunek rozwoju technologii React i React Native i całego ekosystemu wokół nich. Więcej 👉 ir.swmansion.com/news/media

We’re still just warming up 😎

More and more people are turning to edge AI! In just last week we had >50% increase in npm downloads! This happened soon after we reached 1k github stars 🌟milestone! And we still have more great things to come!
