"At the end, a RubyMotion app looks pretty much the same as an Objective-C app." ( from bottom of: http://www.rubymotion.com/features/ http://www.rubymotion.com/features/ ).
pretty much the same as an Objective-C app? Anyone have any clue as to why they didn't state apps in the two languages would look identical?
- cschneid 14y agoDifferent compilers will generate different compiled code, even on identical input (ie, clang vs. GCC). So the binary will be different.
- elsurudo 14y agoI think he's commenting on why they wouldn't LOOK identical, as in UI. UI is a finicky thing, but assuming this allows you to use all Apple APIs, there is no reason you couldn't get an identical-looking UI using this.
- cmelbye 14y agoI'm fairly sure that section is talking about compiled code, structure of the app, the archive, etc, considering it says "compiled ahead-of-time, never interpreted, and you access the entire set of iOS public APIs." the previous paragraph. You're right though, there's no reason the UI wouldn't look identical as well.
