Rubén Sospedra

Barcelona-based engineer with a Political Science background and a lifelong passion for automation. 13+ years in the game. I started by founding a remote startup, then moved through teams of every size. I thrive on complex problems. I ship at the highest standard and build for growth. AI is a multiplier in my toolkit, not a crutch. I give back through open source, conferences, and mentoring. Knowing when to move fast and when to get it right is the skill behind every other skill. Great software lives at the intersection of ambition and pragmatism.

Building a Rich Text Editor in React Native

Rich text editing on the web is a solved problem. On mobile, it's a battlefield. At Digg, we built a rich text editor in React Native anyway. This talk covers what we built, what broke, and the one architectural decision that made everything else possible: a universal content format that every platform, from the editor to the backend to moderation, agrees on. You'll walk away with a practical framework for designing cross-platform content formats, useful well beyond rich text for any unified system.
