Skia v3 renders through Graphite on Dawn, and react-native-webgpu's importDevice wraps that same device, so the WebGPU passes and Skia's drawing share one queue and textures pass between them without copies. Everything that moves runs on the UI thread in a single Reanimated useFrameCallback worklet. Gesture.Pan and Gesture.Tap only write shared values; the engine reads them at the start of the next frame, advances the dig and lean springs and the pull-out (lift, centre, hold, open), encodes the WebGPU passes, records a Skia frame that composites them, and fires Pulsar haptics on the frame the event happens. When everything is at rest it stops drawing. React re-renders only the HUD, and only when the front or held record changes. The scene renders in linear HDR into a 4x MSAA target with a 2048 x 2048 shadow map, spherical harmonics ambient light and anisotropic GGX on the vinyl grooves, then a 41-tap bokeh depth of field and Khronos PBR Neutral tone mapping. Every cover, label, poster and wood grain is drawn by Skia at launch into a mipmapped texture array; there are no image assets. It needs a development build, not Expo Go: Expo SDK 57, New Architecture, iOS 15+, and it runs on the iOS Simulator. Android is configured (minSdk 26) but iOS is the documented target. A bundled patch makes SkiaGraphiteView present at 120 Hz on ProMotion screens.
A 3D album carousel for React Native: flick through a crate of vinyl sleeves, then tap one to lift it out and slide the record from its sleeve. Drawn with WebGPU on Skia's own Graphite device, with soft shadows, depth of field, a haptic tick per record and four rooms. Drop it into a music library or record store app that should feel physical.
An onboarding carousel where 16,000 particles morph from an atom into DNA, the Earth and a galaxy, driven directly by your swipe. The particles are rendered with WebGPU on React Native Skia's own GPU device, so the morph tracks the scroll position and can stop or reverse mid-swipe. Use it as the first-run screen of a science, education or space app.
A collapsing scroll header with a price chart, matched to X's coin page: as the feed slides over it, the header shrinks from its top edge and fades. Pull down and it rides with the content to reveal an arrow, with opacity and drift curves sampled frame by frame from a screen recording. Drop it into a crypto, stock or token detail screen.
A React Native camera screen that opens out of the Dynamic Island, then prints each shot as an instant photo that develops on screen. Pull down and the island grows into a live VisionCamera lens; press the shutter and a Skia print feeds out of a slot and comes up over a minute, faster if you shake it. Drop it into a photo or journaling app as its capture screen.
