There's some suspiciously React Native macOS looking components in Messenger for macOS (native macOS text boxes, native macOS blurred backgrounds, etc). I'm thinking this is either fully React Native, or they have some sort of RN/Electron hybrid going on (which is a thing, apparently).
- poopooracoocoo 5y agoyeah idk about the macos app personally but i can say that the windows app is definitely electron. at least last time i checked. by 'react native' i'm guessing you're referring to RNW, although a port of their iOS app is possible Facebook had previously just used a port of their iOS for their Windows app too.
- gorbypark 5y agoI think we need a new acronym. RND (React Native Desktop)? Microsoft is doing React Native for macOS alongside of React Native Windows. The macOS port is a little bit behind the Windows one, but actively being worked on by Microsoft and Facebook employees, afaik.
