Dive into NativeScript w/Nathan Walker & Ammar Ahmed

Have been lurking at nativescript since yukino song dropped dom-i-native. Ammar Ahmed's open native project s also really cool...

Never comment on YouTube videos but I loved the section of the stream about SolidStart 1.0/one-man-show. Really appreciate the honesty in all of it. Keep up the great work!

NativeScript is 🚀 would love to see it referenced in the solid docs!

NativeScript looks really cool. There was mention of being able to run it on engines other than v8 like Hermes.
With the recent Static Hermes demos, I wonder if NativeScript take advantage of it when gets more stable and become a really great combination...

I wish see nativescript work with Gtk, they have project gjs which work as nativescript but only for Gtk, I think there is an opportunity to integrate them together
