Interviews with Speakers
summary
Facebook-led rewrite called Fabric promises a bottom-up architecture that lets native list views be driven synchronously from JS so apps get snappier; attendees report using community-made native modules to avoid dropping to platform code and expect Fabric allows synchronous calls into the JS thread for native list/layout access. Major pain points are tooling and churn: navigation libs changing and poor debuggers because V8 vs JavaScriptCore debugger mismatch breaks common APIs, plus text recycling and complex styling remain inefficient today. Transpilers like TypeScript and ReasonML are gaining traction.
