mobile support

Is there a plan to support android/ios platform ?

[cztomsik]

I would love to but not this year. I think android is definitely doable (just take deno_core & this lib and then it might work together?) but I have no idea about iOS and most importantly I currently don't have time to try it, sorry.

only android will be huge market.

If here is android support, if some company use it for they product, they will help you finish ios support.

From I know there is no such product in the market, people has to use java/ObjectC to do the render work and there is a cost from javascript bridge.

There is million and million web developer, and a lot of them use react native, weex to do mobile product. react native/weex javascript bridge make them slow and inconsistent, hard to test and maintain for android/ios platform. (because java/objectC evolving every year, and they are very different )

If there is real user and niche market, there will be more contribute from community .

yes, this is a good point, but I need to finish the original scope first :)

mobile (and wearables) is definitely something I'd like to try but it's not something I could hack myself in one night. also, I don't have any experience with mobile apps so that's another obstacle.

is it something you'd be willing to try yourself if I provided you some support on discord?

Yes I am glad to try this.

Let me know to how to reach you by discord. (I just create my discord account today)
