React Native

chinese react-native is here https://lynxjs.org/blog/lynx-unlock-native-for-more.html

🤯 ByteDance just announced Lynx, their native cross-platform technology

Used extensively in their apps, including TikTok!

With first-class React bindings, it's serious competitor to React Native

The architectural choices are really interesting, with a dual-thread model https://t.co/jFChSAeAPR

At first, I was super hyped, but after an hour of reading, the number of red flags is just too much. Just a few:

- 2x JavaScript Engines
- No sync web event model
- Lacking eco system
- React 17 API
- no useLayoutEffect but hacks (no synchronous blocking render characteristic)
