Bringing React Native to New Platforms

React Native is a fantastic bridge for React.js developers for building apps for iOS and Android, but it doesn’t have to stop there. We’re seeing lots of other platform options for React Native popping up in the open source community, including MacOS, Ubuntu, and Windows UWP. This talk covers some of the steps and considerations when building native bridges to React, grounded in real examples from the react-native-windows effort.
