If you hate it so much, why work at a company that produces mediocre software?

Good question. I am a believer of change from within, but also, I do find joy in the tools I develop. They are not related directly to the company product software or its quality, but hopefully it helps others improve their development experience.

Thanks Leo. I've seen a few of Tal Kol's posts and talks, and it seemed to me that Wix was all in on React Native. Thanks for sharing a different point of view.

Tal is my team leader. We often have heated debates on these topics within the team.

I've seen Tal's talks and based on his passion and enthusiasm I do not see Wix moving away from RN, for as long as FB actively pushes RN forward. If FB drops it that's a different story.

NativeScript does not support GL/ThreeJS but RN does so I expect games will be built on top of RN. And when that happens we should get lots of new entrants in the ecosystem and greater creative mass.

I see. How likely is it that Wix is switching back to pure native?
