The mail list passed `onEndReached` and `onRefresh` as inline arrows, so FlatList (a pure component) re-rendered on every render of the screen, and without `strictMode` it then handed its cells a new render function, so every mounted row re-rendered too. Each row also built a fresh swipe `context` object and `onAction` closure, so its `SwipeableRow` could never skip a render. Loading the next page while scrolling flips `loading` and appends rows, re-rendering up to a couple of hundred rows mid-fling. - `onEndReached` and `onRefresh` are stable callbacks and FlatList runs with `strictMode`, which the default React Native typings lack, so `src/types/react-native-flatlist.d.ts` declares it - each row is an `EmailListItem`, memoized on primitives and stable callbacks, which builds its swipe context and callback once per row - rows share one swipe callback that reads the current handler through a ref, so rebuilding the handler no longer re-renders every row
Bulwark Mobile
Beta - work in progress. Many features are unfinished or rough. Expect bugs, missing functionality, and breaking changes between releases. Do not rely on this for primary email yet.
React Native (Expo SDK 54) client for Bulwark Webmail - a JMAP-based mail, calendar, and contacts app.
What works today
- Sign in to any JMAP server (e.g. Stalwart)
- Multiple accounts
- Email list, threads, compose
- Calendar (basic)
- Contacts (basic)
- Push notifications via the Bulwark relay - FCM by default, or UnifiedPush (e.g. ntfy) for devices without Google Play services
- In-app sideload updates from GitHub Releases
What's missing or rough
- iOS builds, but push notifications and client certificates are Android-only so far
- S/MIME, plugins, themes - UI stubs only (filters & rules, the vacation responder and file storage are real implementations)
- Calendar editing is partial; contacts editing is basic
- No Play Store distribution yet (sideload APK from Releases); iOS ships via TestFlight
Run locally
npm install
npx expo start
Then press a for Android, i for iOS, or scan the QR with Expo Go.
For release APK builds and signing see docs/android-release.md. For iOS builds and TestFlight distribution see docs/ios-release.md.
