11/04/2018, 6:11 AMIf that's not what you want from your app, that's fine. You can change that - a

11/04/2018, 6:11 AMI just haven't seen react native be able to do what I'm talking about I could be dead wrong though - m

11/04/2018, 6:14 AMIn the same way I'd have to say haxe isn't as powerful as c++, most developers will not be able to reach the optimization of facebook's app - a

11/04/2018, 6:14 AMThe reason why that loading feature is default is to preserve user mobile data, generally if people scroll at a normal speed then they're almost never gonna see the loading - m

11/04/2018, 6:15 AMoh that's makes sense - a

11/04/2018, 6:15 AMfacebook's app is made using react-native - a

11/04/2018, 6:15 AMhaxe react-native exports javascript which is then compiled in a regular react-native way - o

11/18/2018, 5:11 AMI think I would much prefer to use OpenFL over anything react releated, but I would be curious in seeing a haxe example, especially if it more visual than form type interface. - o

11/18/2018, 5:12 AMWith openfl you don't have to use react boiler plate structures, so I don't agree with the freedom argument you made NotBilly. - c

11/18/2018, 5:26 AMI don't think you can beat the UX of native UI components without tremendous effort - o

11/18/2018, 5:29 AMWould like to see something unrelated to React that does native with Haxe, perhaps with caroway layout - o
orange-van-60470
11/18/2018, 5:29 AMI expect one will appear as there are some native haxe libraries. - c

11/18/2018, 5:30 AMAnd then yes, that is tremendous effort. - c

11/18/2018, 5:35 AMI haven't tried react with haxe though so I'm not sure how similar the experience is - o

11/18/2018, 5:36 AMI think react in haxe is probably a bit nicer - a
ambitious-knife-25690
11/18/2018, 5:36 AMThe closest alternative to react-native in haxe would be haxeui which uses...xml style syntax - a
ambitious-knife-25690
11/18/2018, 5:36 AMand it's not even close in featureset - c
cool-psychiatrist-49311
11/18/2018, 5:36 AMSo you write code ui in as3? Or mxml?
