As I recall, they announced that alongside React Native in January. I believe it was to avoid subtle differences between the JS executed on various platforms (e.g. to prevent a component from using a feature supported in V8 but not JSC).
- kzzzf 11y agoThere are a bunch of other benefits of this, e.g. we use same API on both platforms to hook up profiling. We definitely want to experiment with other JS VMs in the future though.
