this works in dev mode, but passing --no-dev means that the function never fires when you press the touchable. removing the void fixes it. wtf

JavaScript is not, in fact, a touchable, and trying to press it in production will fail, so you must send it to the void

Probably IIFE? Never in my career have I needed to use a JS void keyword. "Welcome to JavaScript, where everything is made up and the rules don't matter" 🤣

I think I had it there due to some dumb eslint rule, but it really shouldn’t change whether the function gets called or not!

We definitely had the "no unhandled promises" eslint rule that suggested adding a void before the call that returned a promise to swallow it, but ran into similar issues like this.... `void` is evil in modern javascript, cast it away

"shouldn't" 😅 Famous last words. "void 0" is short for "undefined" but void 1 probably isn't? (Or something equally as silly)
