February 2026 performance summary: Across the getsentry repositories, delivered core enhancements in cross-platform testing, performance observability, and debugging capabilities with tangible business value. Key work focused on improving release reliability, developer productivity, and unified profiling across mobile platforms. Key initiatives / outcomes: - Getsentry/sentry-react-native: Implemented Cross-Platform E2E Testing Framework and Cirrus CI Upgrades to multi-platform test coverage with updated CI infrastructure (Xcode/iOS SDK, Cirrus runners, Ubuntu). This reduces release risk and shortens feedback loops for iOS and Android builds. - Expo Router Prefetch Performance Monitoring: Added instrumentation for manual prefetch() calls and automatic spans to monitor route prefetch performance, enabling actionable optimizations for navigation and perceived app speed. - iOS UI Profiling via Sentry SDK with Cross-Platform Profiling: Introduced iOS UI profiling and unified profiling options across iOS/Android, deprecating Android-specific profiling options to streamline instrumentation and reporting. - Getsentry/sentry-cocoa: Enabled cross-platform logging by making setOutput public to forward native logs to JavaScript consoles in hybrid apps (e.g., React Native, Flutter), improving debugging and observability in hybrid flows. - Documentation: Updated getsentry/sentry-docs to reflect iOS UI profiling support for React Native SDK, ensuring stakeholders have current guidance. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened testing reliability and speed-to-feedback through Cirrus CI upgrades and E2E coverage. - Enhanced performance visibility for navigation via prefetch instrumentation. - Unified mobile profiling capabilities across iOS/Android, enabling faster diagnosis of performance regressions. - Improved debugging workflows in hybrid apps by surfacing native logs to the JS console. - Clearer, up-to-date documentation supporting developers integrating iOS profiling. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Cirrus CI, Xcode/iOS SDK versions, Ubuntu runner management, end-to-end testing orchestration, instrumentation and tracing, cross-platform profiling, React Native ecosystem, hybrid app debugging, API surface changes.
