developing app for Tizen / Webo

[saimirg]

Hi, we've developed our app mainly for android devices and would like to now start building it for Samsung/LG. Just wanted to ask if we need to redo everything from scratch to convert all screens to pages or is there any way to do it automatically ?

Depends what engine you would like to use, Create does support rn-web engine where essentially you don't need to convert anything. You can try our template https://github.com/flexn-io/create/tree/main/packages/template-starter by running npx rnv run -p tizen --hosted or npx rnv run -p webos --hosted it will run it in web interface but you will see that same code is running under these platforms also.

Also there is an option to run Lightning.JS engine, but for that you will need to develop your app in Lightning.JS syntax, since there is no transpilation from RN

@aurimasmi could you please advice a version of Node, RNV, Template, that can successfully build/export tizen app ?

I'm running the build command for tizen and webos, and it is only generating static files for webos. It is also generating WGT file for Tizen, but it does not have any static JS files inside.

Here is the build results for TIZEN

output

And these are the results for same command for Webos

output

I have the same problem.

if I run

npx rnv build -p tizen

it will produce a debug wgt, with an index.html with href to my local webserver. I expected to find static js inside wgt in order to publish my wgt to samsung store.

Same thing with webos

same thing with

npx rnv build -p tizen -s production

@saimirg this is a valid issue, and is already partially fixed, but no release yet made, will inform you once release has been made

@saimirg @fisarmio renative has this issue solved already on 1.0.0-rc.12, however create hasn't been yet updated with latest renative
