So disagree. The benefits you get from leveraging a framework as as important today as they have ever been -- strong frameworks, fewer tokens, faster progress.

Hallelujah!

One other person in this place gets it: "fewer tokens, faster progress"

Electron, Tauri, React Native/Expo, Flutter (and countless others) are the wrong kind of abstractions, built for a time pre-AI, solving pre-AI problems

We need a new post-AI abstraction that embraces this opportunity!

That's why we're building SuperNative
