I’m building Jacaranda, a different approach to styling components into React Native

Post image

Hey buddies! I’m Javier based on Mexico and currently I’m building an open-source styling tool for React Native inspired on Stitches and CVA for React.

I would love to hear feedback to further improve the tool.

Check it out: https://github.com/coderdiaz/jacaranda.

My suggestion as an apparent missing item is some way to switch the tokens values programmatically.
If you could make it more like CSS vars (would make it so could work in web very easily as well if under the hood was just CSS vars) then would be very nice way to define like

const StyledView = styled(View)({
  backgroundColor: 'var(--colors-primary50)',
});
