Today, we're excited to introduce Lynx, a family of technologies empowering developers to use their existing web skills to create truly native UIs for both mobile and web from a single codebase. Designed for diverse use cases and rich interactivity, Lynx delivers vibrant and engaging UIs for large-scale apps like TikTok, featuring a speedy, versatile rendering engine, performance-driven dual-threaded UI programming, modern Rust-based tooling, and more!
We deeply appreciate all the prior arts that have shaped the field of cross-platform development, and aspire to contribute to this movement by open sourcing Lynx today, inviting more developers to build applications with more freedom and productivity.
It is an honor to be an early adopter of Lynx. Even before it was open-sourced, I had already implemented it in my projects. With its outstanding performance, small bundle size, and numerous advantages, I highly recommend it. Integrating Lynx into product development can significantly enhance efficiency.
I may call it a versatile product for the reason of making the efforts of any developer working with single codebase to get it deployed in any given OS at once.
so hard to tell what this actually is and what it does. I want to like it but can't because I've not idea what it actually is
Babe wake up, a new javascript framework has been released!
btw I just watched the Fireship video, and it looks like a great one.
I'll try it out during the weekend!
