Cross-Platform Development
NativeScript allows developers to write code once and deploy it across multiple platforms, including iOS and Android, which saves time and resources.
Native Performance
Since NativeScript directly uses native components, it delivers high performance comparable to native applications, unlike some other cross-platform solutions.
Rich Ecosystem
NativeScript offers a rich ecosystem of plugins and modules, making it easy to extend functionalities and integrate with various services.
Single Codebase
Maintaining a single codebase for both iOS and Android reduces development and debugging efforts.
Open Source
Being open source, NativeScript has strong community support and continuous improvements driven by developers around the world.
Access to Native APIs
NativeScript allows direct access to native APIs, giving developers more flexibility and control over platform-specific features.
A long time ago, nativescript[1] seemed to be a strong alternative to reactnative. Is that still the case? [1] https://nativescript.org/.

I’m curious about this topic as well. I would also add NativeScript[1] in the comparison. [1] https://nativescript.org/.

This is not so much the Svelte equivalent of React Native as it is just NativeScript (https://nativescript.org).

There is also https://nativescript.org/ which would allow you to use Vue (or several other frameworks) to build a mobile app. Used it myself a while back for an iPad app using Vue 2 and it was pretty straightforward. It seems like there have been quite a few improvements since then so might be worth a look.

Anyone who thinks this sucks should try NativeScript with hassle-free update experience, quick build time, HMR, direct access to native apis, use React Native plugins and more. Pick any style you like – vanilla, Angular, Vue, React, Svelte – and easily add some SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose views if you want a and connect it to your JS. Docs are a bit behind at the moment but a major update is in progress….

There are layers that offer access to native APIs like capacitor, cordova and nativescript. Apparently sometimes multiple of them should be used, but I didn’t understand what are the differences even after reading the announcement. These seem to be frontend agnostic technologies and Capacitor is apparently the more modern choice at the moment.

PWA? You can then, with moderate difficulty use something like https://nativescript.org/ make native versions.

Using the amazing Preview environment that the Nativescript team together with Stackblitz have done, it was time to start hacking at it. (More information can be found here at https://preview.nativescript.org/).

Svelte Native leverages NativeScript, which allows you to develop native apps with JavaScript and gives the JavaScript code access to the device native code directly. It has no wrapper, meaning you can access all supported device APIs.

Maybe https://nativescript.org/ is something for you? .

Writing JavaScript for the server-side is possible, also writing JavaScript for mobile applications and desktop applications is also possible. Apache Cordova is a free mobile application development framework that allows you to develop an application in HTML/JavaScript and then it wraps it into a native container that can access the device functions of several platforms and hence enables the web app to work on…

NativeScript’s vision is to “Liberate your development by using platform APIs directly without leaving your [love] of JavaScript.” Think of NativeScript as the go-to tool when building cross-platform mobile apps with JavaScript in a framework-agnostic team.

As mentioned before the NativeScript Playground has been great to get to grips with so far. Their docs have also been a great resource too.

None of those! The real answer is Nativescript — https://nativescript.org It doesn’t get the buzz, and the ecosystem is somewhat old (it’s surprisingly common to run into a repo that hasn’t been touched in a year) but it’s the superior platform to React Native and you get none of the capriciousness of the React ecosystem (if anything the Nativescript community might need a jolt). Nativescript is incredibly…

React Native / NativeScript – for building native mobile apps with web technologies (deeper native bindings, without the use of WebView).

You should not mistake PWAs with desktop or native applications built with Electron.js or Nativescript though – they do only run on the browser’s context and have no access to device specific APIs.

There are multiple ways to develop applications for the android; you can go down the path of hybrid application development where flutter, react-native, or NativeScript are the most common contenders. Flutter uses Dart, whereas React Native and Native Script rely on JavaScript. Answering the question of hybrid vs native is out of the scope of this roadmap. This roadmap is focused on the native Android apps…
