React Native in 40 minutes
summary
Clear claims and concrete tooling: demonstrations show animations running at 60 fps even while the JavaScript thread is blocked, using reanimated and react-native-gesture-handler; complex 2D graphics are rendered with react-native-skia; the new RN architecture (JSI, Fabric, Turbo Modules in C++) enables synchronous calls, lazy native-module loading and a priority queue. A real app migrated only the audio/timing logic to native Android/iOS (about 5% of code) while 95% stays in React Native and React Native Web via Kron, and over‑the‑air updates use CodePush.
