Things I have to say: * Background noise in your video is annoying. * Why are you showing your face? I'd rather see your code bigger. * Using require instead of module imports shows me that this product is going to have trouble keeping pace with FB, Babel, ECMA speeds. * I'm not in love with adding another IDE * hello http://getqwikly.com/ all over again Sorry, but I'm not betting on this horse.

Facebook releases so fast. So when something is brand new and it's already not using the latest, I feel afraid.

The example project doesn't use the import syntax, it's using require, and feels like it's coming from ECMA5 in a brand new video. I just worry, can they keep up? Facebook releases breaking changes often so it's a valid concern.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

For the beta, we currently have our own registry, but we are looking into ways to integrate with others.

Okay! And presumably for the code scaffolding you will eventually let library authors customize that themselves?

Yep, that's right.

What exactly constitutes the Deco package registry? Will I need to submit my React Native libraries to a new registry? Or are you working with something like http://js.coach (formerly react.parts)?

Is there a reason you aren't using NPM - I haven't done much react native development, is NPM not the go-to registry?
