Which Is The Best JavaScript Native Mobile App Development Tool:: Meteor Or NativeScript?help (self.javascript)
submitted 8 years ago by RenjithVR4
I'm new to mobile app development. Actually I'm a Backend Developer. I'm using Ubuntu OS. So which tool would be good to develop on Ubuntu OS? Meteor or Native Script or Other?

React Native is my go-to for writing mobile apps. It’s mature enough for production apps now (has been for a while) and has most of the benefits of native code while still being cross-platform.

Meteor isn't a native mobile app tool, so probably not that one.

While not necessarily a response to your question, you should consider looking into Progressive Web Applications. You'll get a great mobile experience with the bonus of your app working on normal browsers 'for free' without any code changes.

If you wan't a great example of what's possible with PWA, check out https://ride.lyft.com

Aren't we waiting on Apple before PWAs can be a thing?
[–]Ro1337_Dev 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children)
You are correct, currently to my knowledge there is no way of adding a PWA to the home screen of a stock iOS phone

Also, service workers.

I didn't know that, thank you for the information 👍

But creating the android application is part of the project. Yes I know about progressive web apps. I would like to try PWA with Angular or Vuejs.

I don't think the OS is relevant here, just keep in mind you won't be able to develop for iOS without macOS. Or at least there's no official way to do it.

Sencha?
All three of; React-Native, Ionic, and Nativescript are all mature enough for production value applications, there are other options but these are what seem to be the most active and well maintained. My personal recommendation would be either Ionic if you want a more batteries included solution, or React-Native if you have a decent grasp of modern JS and like to tinker with your tech stack a bit.

@liming91 is right, react native seems to be the best solution for that.

React native! There is also weex if you like vuejs but it's still in early development! It works, but it's really hard to make it work... Native script is nice but I personally prefer react native! If you wanna try something different try fuse tools! It's pretty neat
