## Using React Styleguidist The Wrong Way
by Bogdan Kolbik

React Styleguidist meant to be a tool for building styleguides and documenting usage. My team doesn't use it that way. Still React Styleguidist provides us a lot of benefits as part of CI pipeline.

I'll tell how we use it, which problems it solved, and how can you integrate it into your workflow.

## Lisk Mobile iMessage Extension Meetup Talk
by Altay Aydemir & Yashar Ayari

The already created Lisk Mobile iMessage Extension shares components with the Lisk Mobile main application (React Native). The lack of educational material about the iMessage Extension and the React Native integration forced Lisk developers to implement their own native bridge and use React Native to create the components. The aim of this talk is to present the initial idea together with the research done by the team. The presentation will dive deep into the implementation details and the difficulties faced by the developers. In the end, a demo will be shown to give a clear understanding of the iMessage Extension.

You can see the process in our GitHub Repo: https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk-mobile

## One Style to Rule Them All
by Philipp Giese

As a library author you often times face the challenge of including some basic styles in your library. However, it can be difficult to choose the right approach because you don’t know how the consuming application is handling styles. Should you go with plain CSS, or LESS, SASS, CSS in JS, JSS, … the list is endless. Signavio's team has built an abstraction on top of your styles that lets authors write styles in a single way while giving users the ability to inject their styling framework of choice. This solution is used in Signavio's own tools as well as in their most popular open source library “react-mentions”.
