This would of made for a much better article. I couldn't agree more!

I'm currently working on a Hybrid React app, performance issues aside the real issue is documentation and support. As soon as you are beyond a basic web app wrapped in a container you realise quickly Corodova will always be a second class citizen.

On a more positive note React Native (https://facebook.github.io/react-native/) is mind blowingly amazing. I really can't recommend it enough, especially for Javascript developers.

I'm looking to use something like Cordova to develop a fairly simple app for both Android and ios,

so far it looks like React is for Mac only, looking at https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started... ?

Edit: It looks like i'm missing something as I can see Android apps built with it on http://www.reactnative.com/built-with-react-native/

There's also http://reapp.io/ It can produce apps that run on Android but last time I checked the documentation was pretty iOS centric.

That's React Native, not standard React for the Web.

Ah gotcha, looks like Android support is coming to React Native soon, fingers crossed
