nativescript vs react native
In this video were going to be talking about native script vs react native why you would want to use one other the other,
by the end of this video you will have a good idea of what framework would work better for you and your next project.
also im going to most be talking about the dev experience between the two, but ill also touch on things like performance and the community.
Also before I start I just want to say I have used native script much more than I have used react native so if I get anything wrong about react native feel free to let me know in the comments.
Ok lets talk about the dev experience between native script and react native
If you want to make it super simple,
Just go with whether you like react or angular.
One of the nice things about native script is you can use whatever web framework you want to build a mobile app with. You can currently use angular or vuejs on top of nativescript
And obviously with react native… you have to use react
This is probably the first thing you should think about when deciding between react native and native script
Ok lets talk about performance,
Honestly from doing a little bit of research both react native and nativescript have similar performance
I haven’t run any simulations between the two so I can’t tell you the benchmarks of how the compare to one another
But at the end of the day when you compile your apk or release build you get a native app with performance that’s on par or close to a real 100% native built app
If your app is just a standard app with some form inputs and not too much going on, your not going to have to worry about performance.
You have to start worrying about performance if you have lots of complex animations and lots of views being rendered at once
or if your building a game, which I have done with native script you can check it out on the App Store or google play store if you want to see how a game performs on native script.
Ok lets talk about the community
The naticescipt community is just a bunch of salty devs who complain all day about how the react native community is better
Nah im just kidding
But the react native community is much bigger than the native script one.
Depending on what your looking for a bigger community can be a good thing or bad thing.
A bigger community usually means that if you run into a problem your probably not the first person to have that problem and you can find an answer easily.
But a smaller community means if you ask a question your more likely to get a direct response from a developer or plugin author.
Compared to if your question is just another question in a list of 5000 issues.
Dev experience
Both have hot reload,
Both have code playground for fast prototyping
both have a large library of plugs,
But nativesript has a official plugin market place which some plugins are officially supported by the developers of native script
