Hi, we want to rewrite our UI library but we are not sure if NativeWind is the right horse to bet on :)

It seems like @marklawlor is no longer contributing nor is anybody else...

There is this issue "NativeWind v4 - Coming soon" https://github.com/marklawlor/nativewind/issues/600 opened on Nov 1 but the v4 is still not here, and no new commit was pushed for 3 months.

@achtan stumbled on your , I started using this library a few months ago. I couldn't find any better tools out there for react native tailwind support.

Originally started using v2 but revisited v4 with the recent expo release. I was able to install on a fresh project and working wonderfully. A few quirks but it's expected when supporting a new major version of a improtant dependency

@marklawlor with how useful this tool has been, I'd love for this to tool to keep going. I've cloned the repo and will see if i can get it running locally. I can't commit to any dedicated time but hoping I can debug some of the things I'm seeing at least. I'd be happy to connect to see how I can help the v4 release.

@achtan Sigh, posts like this benefit no one. The charts you've shared literally show somewhat recent enormous amount of changes.

NativeWind 4 is ready and you can start using it in production. @marklawlor is simply waiting for feedback

I'm asking because we need to decide based on the answer. I didn't mean to troll or anything.

We spent the last 5 months rewriting our spate management from Recail to Redux because Recoil seems to be dead https://github.com/facebookexperimental/Recoil/issues/2288 and we don't want to make the same mistake again.

I think my question is valid since this repo was not touched for months...

@alexandrius do you have some behind the sean information? or are you just guessing/hoping?

alexandrius commented 1 month ago

@achtan so you made a wrong decision and then another one when you switched to Redux.

just don't use the library if you have doubts. Latest commits are recent and @marklawlor has stated that he is just waiting for feedback.

2 weeks ago I created a PR that has to be merged to fix an issue for Windows. https://github.com/marklawlor/nativewind/pull/860

@marklawlor not responding to it anyhow. So, it's hard to say if it's really still active/maintained.

Looks like Mark has been working on the Expo Router, maybe he's a little busy. Any chance of the Expo team embracing this project and helping by contributing? It would be interesting and would make this project more reliable without depending on a single person.

I rewrote my entire project from Styled Components to Nativewind, I think this discussion is valid since the repo issues grow and we don't have help to attract new contributors like contributing.md or something like that.

This library is impressive, I believe it will not die.

Can also help! trying to rely on this in production, and given the popularity pushing nativewind v4 through to the finish line will help the community immensely
