How long would it take you to build everything you get from RN and all the libraries in TP6? From what I remember of TP6 it would take me a few years. Maybe even a decade. Oh and a lot of libraries (like mouse support) used assembly code and prob only worked on a limited numbed of computers.

>How long would it take you to build everything you get from RN and all the libraries in TP6? Are we talking about the site, or the web browser to view it with? I could probably do either in a month. Using Lazarus/Free Pascal, about 1 week each.

  We’re talking about taking in React code and compiling it to iOS native UI plus the bridge between native APIs and JavaScript. Obviously to get there you first need to get all the iOS UI kit into Pascal. Then also a compiler from Pascal to iOS binaries. PS: don’t forget the dev tooling.

    Oops... I see the typo now... you wrote RN, and I read HN, Hacker News... ;-)
