I don't think Roku apps are written in JavaScript/HTML. I believe they use BrightScript (at least on the older models), so I don't think React would help.

- untog 10y agoIt is possible to work directly with C++ though, which I think Netflix must be doing with their Gibbon framework because their interface is very different from those obviously using the Roku tools (and looks exactly like their interface everywhere else). As the article states, Netflix aren't necessarily working with HTML when they make these React views - it sounds very much like how React Native works.
- yaur 10y agoDo you have a cite for that? If there is a c++ sdk it isn't easy to find, though I can easily believe that companies on the scale of Netflix have access to better tools.
