🇪🇺 Dear EU Citizens,
🇬🇧 Dear UK Citizens,
🇺🇸 Dear US Citizens,
🇦🇺 Dear Australian Citizens,

Happy Birthday to one of the kindest, most amazing person I’m lucky to call a friend @anniebombanie_ so glad to have met you this year. You’re such a hard worker and an inspiration. Wishing you lots of success and happiness 🎊🎉

I was too afraid to start on react native so early in my dev career but @harrismahmood89 made it sound less daunting. Can’t wait to try out react-native immediately!!

The #GreenNewDeal has been one of the buzziest new policy proposals in Washington, thanks in part to the support of @AOC.
But what’s actually in the plan, and what will it do? Here’s what you need to know:
