VirtualKeyboardSDK VS NativeScript

We will look at the Fleksy Keyboard SDK developed to address these significant issues while building a keyboard app. As the SDK natively supports Android and iOS platforms, creating a keyboard using the Flutter framework is very straightforward. The SDK is also well documented and available here.

The Fleksy SDK is a virtual keyboard toolkit for developers and organizations looking into creating a 10X better typing experience while requiring 90% less time to develop it.

This is not so much the Svelte equivalent of React Native as it is just NativeScript (https://nativescript.org).

There is also https://nativescript.org/ which would allow you to use Vue (or several other frameworks) to build a mobile app. Used it myself a while back for an iPad app using Vue 2 and it was pretty straightforward. It seems like there have been quite a few improvements since then so might be worth a look.

Anyone who thinks this sucks should try NativeScript with hassle-free update experience, quick build time, HMR, direct access to native apis, use React Native plugins and more. Pick any style you like - vanilla, Angular, Vue, React, Svelte - and easily add some SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose views if you want a and connect it to your JS. Docs are a bit behind at the moment but a major update is in progress. https://nativescript.org/

There are layers that offer access to native APIs like capacitor, cordova and nativescript. Apparently sometimes multiple of them should be used, but I didn't understand what are the differences even after reading the announcement. These seem to be frontend agnostic technologies and Capacitor is apparently the more modern choice at the moment.

Maintaining NativeScript core is like maintaining any TypeScript library. In particular, it's maintenance revolves largely around:

PWA? You can then, with moderate difficulty use something like https://nativescript.org/ make native versions.

Using the amazing Preview environment that the Nativescript team together with Stackblitz have done, it was time to start hacking at it. (More information can be found here at https://preview.nativescript.org/)
