While the technology is interesting, I don't why you are posting this here, Olivier.
There is no React Native for Tizen and it is exceedingly unlikely that Facebook or anybody else would ever bother to build that. There is simply no market. React is a pattern for building applications in a better way. Tizen needs device install base and it needs ANY applications. We aren't short of ways to build applications for Tizen. It simply isn't worth bothering doing. You can see that in the recent episode on application-dev where Yair Solomon has been unable to ship his Unity application for months and it turns out the final hurdle is that there is use of non-approved Tizen API in the Unity player itself, meaning in all likelihood that there are ZERO Unity3D titles in the Tizen Store, in spite of Unity being used for over 50% of all iOS and Android games. All the professional software developers left Tizen a long time ago. Many of my peers ported their games in 2013, and then gave up waiting for a market to get any money back on their work. Especially after OSP was dropped, breaking every single native app. Like most games. Technology is not the answer. Lack of communication and command-and-control culture are the problem. Tizen is very hostile and unappealing to professional developers and there is just no install base to justify the risk of investment. I would love that not to be the case, but that is the unvarnished reality.

Unlike PhoneGap/Cordova, React Native provides bindings for native UI controls which totally outclass HTML-based hybrid solutions. After playing with the sample app for a while, I decided to jettison my Cordova codebase and rewrite the Circadi <http://www.circadi.com/> app using this new framework. It took me about 96 working hours to finish an MVP, now published on the App Store <https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/circadi/id1035015954?ls=1&mt=8>. My overall experience with React Native is positive. I'm going to give an account of my key findings below for people who're considering to adopt the framework." http://blog.zmxv.com/2015/09/what-i-learned-from-building-react.html _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] https://lists.tizen.org/listinfo/general
