NativeScript mentions (19)

• Gio UI – Cross-Platform GUI for Go

  A long time ago, nativescript[1] seemed to be a strong alternative to reactnative. Is that still the case? [1] https://nativescript.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Ask HN: Flutter or React Native?

  I'm curious about this topic as well. I would also add NativeScript[1] in the comparison. [1] https://nativescript.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Svelte Native: The Svelte Mobile Development Experience

  This is not so much the Svelte equivalent of React Native as it is just NativeScript (https://nativescript.org). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Mobile App Development for both iOS and Andriod

  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. Source: about 1 year ago

• Updating Expo and React Native sucks

  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.... Source: about 1 year ago

• Gio UI – Cross-Platform GUI for Go

  Businesses do seem to like AvaloniaUI and Uno. https://avaloniaui.net/ https://platform.uno/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• The search for easier safe systems programming

  WPF is not the best example of open source, as some components are still closed source. Though it only runs on Windows, a closed source operating system, so perhaps that is not so important. https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/issues/2554. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• .NET on Linux: What a Contrast

  Yes, but the portable GUI frameworks by Microsoft themselves are generally not very good, and they tend to be abandoned after a couple of years. Avalonia is developed outside of the Microsoft corporate madness and seems to be slowly becoming the defacto cross-platform framework because it is expected to last a bit longer than a manager's attention span: https://avaloniaui.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Course using F#: Write your own tiny programming system(s)

  You should be able to use Avalonia[1] as an alternative GUI layer on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android. There is a beautiful Avalonia.FuncUI[2] and Avalonia.FuncUI.Elmish[3] which is an implementation of Elmish[4] (based of the Elm language[4]) for F#.

• Why Is the Front End Stack So Complicated?

  To bad Microsoft refuse to work on proper cross platform WPF support. I've tried Avalonia UI[0], but it's just not the same. For instance the lack of a proper out-of-the-box virtualized list. [0] https://avaloniaui.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
