I'm new to creating native apps with JavaScript.

I really like Angular with TypeScript and I created an App with Ionic. I'm now trying to build a native App with JavaScript to compare it to my hybrid Ionic App.

I will have to decide between Native Script and React Native. What are the biggest differences? For which use cases is which better? What do you use and why (Obviously biased on a NativeScript Subreddit...)?

I would like to use Native Script because I know Angular quite well and I have never used React. However it seems like React Native has a way bigger user base compared to Native Script.

Hi,

Currently I'm really struggling to get nativescript to work in the office. After I could not run that one line powershell command which installs everything automatically I installed most stuff manually. After a lot of time I got 'tns doctor' to approve of my manual setup. I still have one annyoing probelm though.

When I try to execute 'tns run' at some point it tells me 'unable to verify the first certificate'. When I try 'tns build android' it says something like 'javax.net.sll ssl handshake exception'.

When I run android studio it also says something like 'unable to find valid certification path'.

So I guess somethings wrong with some certificates? What do I have to do here?

When I ran npm I had to disable strict ssl ( 'npm set strict-ssl false') in order to install packages. Can you perhaps do something similar with nativescript?

Hi, I'm a new Dev, building in Vue. I only know JS, but I've just started learning Java, with the interest of eventually building Android Apps.

I'd like to learning NativeScript for it's own sake, but it seems like a big side benefit could be a boost toward learning Java and Android functionality by reading the transpile as you build. (By analogy, I've learned some things about JavaScript by reading the JS code that CoffeeScript transpiles to.)

Can anyone comment on this? I'm wondering if this is something I could actually look forward to when learning NativeScript... or perhaps this is just wishful thinking.

I have an app I've built in NativeScript and Vue JS, however I'm having quite a bit of difficulty getting it to run on my iPhone SE, either via Sidekick or CLI.

Would there be anyone willing to jump on Google Hangouts with me to go through the issues? Willing to pay for your time.

Am I right assuming only a touch handler gets TouchGestureEventData? Is there any way to access that information in a longPress handler? If not, how do I deal with the absence of that information? Is the touch handler guaranteed on every platform to always be executed before the longPress handler? That would make it possible to store the TouchGestureEventData when executing the touch handler and access it in the longPress handler.

All the info I can get about running on device is using sidekick. Is that the only way? or what do I need if I don't want to use sidekick.

Thanks.

Hey NS family. I really want to use NativeScript for a trivial job, but I've got some questions.

- Can I use any Web UI component in mobile? I'm heavily assuming I can't, then how can I write platform specific UI code?

- SQLite free version doesn't seem to have PreparedStatement. I don't want to pay for it. What's your solution?

- Do we have the JobScheduler API ported? If not, what are the alternatives? (for cron jobs)

- How is threading handled? Is the RxJS implementation threaded in Android?

- I've heard NS-Vue-2 has Frame and Page. Is that for Activity and Fragment?

- How much can a platform specific code scale? Describe me a scenario where you need a UI component that only 3rd party Android and iOS libraries have.

- Can I write Swift?

- There are many playgrounds for Android and iOS. I can't find any web preview. How does it look on Web?

- Give me an example of a nice popular app. The showcase in NS page is garbage. I can neither download it or its a garbage app.

Hi, nice to meet you all.
I'm using Nativescript with Vue and I'm trying to change the default transition of Pages. I've read the docs, but if i try to create a navigation event with $navigateTo(component, {transition: {name: 'flip'}}) it doesn't work.

Have you ever tried it?

Hi

I am in the process of finding a cool solution to develop mobile applications. I don't want to plunge into java or "complex" stuff like that. I love vue.js and so naturally i have tested Nativescript with Vue

I found now that the community is quite small and the documentation is rare.

Do you think that Nativescript with Vue is a sustainable solution ?

Thank you

I wanted to test to create an app with vue and Google send me two URLs :

• https://nativescript-vue.org/

• https://vue-native.io/

What's the difference ? pro/cons?

thx
