BTW to parent, one big advantage of react-native over ionic is that it's not a wrapped web app, but a javascript/react app that compiles to an actual native app

The performance difference and development experience (no silly css hacks) is very noticeable.
- nbclark 10y agoNot to nitpick, but I don't believe react native "compiles" to a native app. The evaluation of the JS in JavaScript Core is passed of to native code to layout native views. The interactions are then posted back into jscore. So while closer to native compiled code performance, it's still a bit different.
- Secretmapper 10y agoFair enough, I'm afraid I didn't explain it properly
