It would probably be a huge pain to migrate all 18,000 classes, tests, tools, etc., over to a React Native app. Also JS has less fine grained tooling for performance profiling (try stepping through JS bytecode for performance analysis, it's a PITA). One day it might get there, but not today. If it works, why change it?
- gorkemyurt 11y agoI am not talking about migrating the whole app but how about for new features? I noticed that they redesigned their friends request page, why not build that with react native?
- plorkyeran 11y agoThe engineers who did that redesign didn't want to use react native or felt it wasn't a good choice. Just because one person at Facebook built a tool doesn't mean that everyone else at Facebook is suddenly required to use that tool where ever possible.
