Sure, I agree for a greenfield social/mobile/local mobile app, RN makes a lot of sense.
> both a desktop (Linux/MacOS/Windows) and mobile (tablet and phone, android and IOS) application from same codebase... word-processing oriented in nature with some interactive graphing and drawing, some displaying, creating and drawing on top of PDFs
... definitely doesn't fit that description. At that point, your choices are JS with RN, React and Electron or C++. For custom graphics rendering and editing, JS would be a very odd choice.
- crispinb 9y agoYou're quite right. I had misread which parent your comment was referring to. For this case RN would be an odd and probably infeasible choice.
- Keyframe 9y agoC, that is more C++ kind of is my choice (QT namely). I was wondering if there is a faster approach with JS, since I don't care about what I work with in this case, as long as it doesn't take me much time to do it. Xamarin seemed like a good direction, but no linux yet. Electron, while heavy, seemed like almost a perfect choice - but no mobile.
