React Native Skia Order Books & 60fps Quote Tapes
Not financial advice. Verify claims independently.
From the RT/SOFT engineering journal:
Order books and quote tapes punish naive React trees. In 2026 the durable pattern is:
- Skia / canvas for the dense grid
- JSI / Nitro sockets for binary payloads where you control both ends
- React state only for chrome (headers, modals, settings)
Micron-week stress
AMC prints create bursty updates. Cap invalidate rate, coalesce paints, and never allocate giant JS strings per tick.
Paper-trade the UI against Stock Picks so designers see 60fps goals with real pacing, not mocked timers alone.
