But does it have something similar to React Native?

This was a problem I was trying to solve as well and theres a pretty elegent solution that this project has implemented partly already. The "render to string" is also a proof of concept that the indicates "unknown" types can be fullfilled by a "renderer". So long as he allows generic "renderers". Within a more free form environment like nativescript[ 1], this library can be one of any that can be used. I was planning to implement blessed and nativescript uis but these can often be very painstaking tasks. If the developers on this project are committed, the sky is the limit!

Respect for building something on your own. It's just that I don't know if what the world needs is another javascript framework.

The fact is that React is extrodinaitilly bloated, you can only have one instance in a single environment and you are highly dependent on using libraries that are forks in order to target new environments (like native, blessed or rbg).

React isnt some God given wheel that needs no fixing. Competition is a great thing to have
