"it will be easier for you to generate a native mobile-app from your PWA source code using technologies such as Ionic, React Native or Apache Cordova."
I believe react native doesn't belong here, it's not browser powered like ionic and Cordova.
- mcdonnellb 7y agoGenuine question, can you explain this a little more?
- behindsight 7y agoIonic and Cordova generally are "webview" apps. Essentially a headless mobile web site with access to device APIs. In modern Android and iOS, you could also just install a PWA directly without wrapping it in Ionic/Cordova with the caveat of losing access to some device level APIs. React Native utilizes actual native components that are declared via a JS bridge. It's not a webview. However in the author's defense, with the current work on react-native-web, you could share a lot of your react-native code that would swap device components with their equivalent web based components.
