    OnSen has promise.
    https://onsen.io

    Like Weex and Quasar, it uses Cordova... and not like the others, some Monaca cloud deal.

    Weex should be very good for those of us who use Vue. I hope... at least documentation should be 100x better.

    Well, React Native produces native apps, not hybrids.

    Isn't Ionic only for ng2?

    And yes, Weex is native, I believe. It will become "Vue Native" once Evan You gets them on the right page with Vue. They brought him in as a consultant.

    From what I read, they all (Weex, Ionic, Quasar, OnSen... I don't know what React uses) pretty much have Cordova (as well as Electron for Quasar) under the covers. So, it's good to understand Cordova if you want to use any of them.

    I just realized I repeated myself about Cordova there. The downside of using the phone app ( couldn't see my post above while typing :P )

    @yo-adrian yes but most are locked to a specific​ framework.

    React Native doesn't have a DOM or CSSOM, it's all XML-like and CSS-like. For some that can be a major pain. Cordova is just an enhanced WebView so it brings the inherent issues of a WebView with it. NativeScript looks nice and strives to implement full CSS support (unlike React Native) but the rendering performance isn't as good as React Native. I don't know much about Weex except that Alibaba (the maker) is huge and (think Amazon of China), but even Chinese search results on Google don't return much info comparing the platform. Also, the documentation in English isn't there yet.

    Lastly, I'd avoid the WebView type platform. But that's just me, I don't like fussing with WebView drawbacks when I don't have to. I use React Native a lot, but I've also had to write native plugins and common components to style every piece of UI. There's also NativeBase (I've avoided, seen some novice questions from their devs in groups) and Shoutem UI (looks promising).

    Just today tried to explore the topic. I found here that Weex is too raw https://applikeysolutions.com/blog/... I agree.

    In case you’ve never heard or used Vue.js before, you are probably thinking: “Come on! Yet another JavaScript framework!” However, Vue.js is not new. It was first released in 2013 and now it has 38706 starts on Github and downloaded number of times this year. Today Vue.js is one of the top JavaScript frameworks and it is replacing Angular and React in many cases. So find out why Vue.js is good, but is it really better than Angular or React. https://artjoker.net/blog/...

    React native is the most common choice of many web development firms here in UK like: https://www.goodcore.co.uk/ So this made be quite handy with it, others are good too, without doubt.

    React Native is the best option if are going to develop mobile applications. Other than being easy to use, the apps are faster. Retaining the app is easy with faster load time.
