React Native seems to be quickly becoming the standard for fast development coupled with native integration

Flutter seems to be gaining ground on React Native. And they also have web and desktop ports. Recently flutter overtook react native on Google trends.

I'd love to abandon my C/C++ UI frameworks for React, but I need

- consistent rendering/support across multiple platforms and versions

- multiple windows

- rendering to a window that isn't owned by the UI being rendered or created by the framework

Can I do that all in React native? Edit: don't need to bring up electron.

Wasm

With WASM though you will still have to have the app be deployed within browser context. Thus losing hotkeys to the browser etc

Or you can build native WASM apps?
