Really don't want to stir up controversy here, but what impacts are we as a community facing or expecting from React-Native? The React-Native story seems compelling, but I have a deep aversion to JavaScript in all its forms and variants. It's one reason I'm doing RubyMotion rather than Rails. 😏
I confess to being at least slightly concerned/disturbed by the significant interest being shown in it by Infinite Red, who have produced gems I rely on. I'm fairly distanced from the broader reaches of the tech community (the nice way to say I'm narrowly focused, I guess) so have no clue how this is landing in the development world at large. But I'm concerned for RubyMotion as I find it a wonderful platform for iOS development. I'm expecting the same to emerge for Android as the various gems prolife
