Who am I?
Dear Santa
For Christmas, I would like a mobile app. It needs to be written with Vue.js, and it needs to behave like a sweet native app. I have been very good. I didn't even drink too many Vuetinis this year.
your friend,
Jen

Let's talk about NativeScript
@jenlooper
NativeScript is…
an open source framework for building truly native mobile apps with JavaScript. Use web skills, like TypeScript, Angular, Vue, and CSS, and get native UI and performance on iOS and Android.
@jenlooper
Rich, animated, “no compromise” native UI
(with shared UI code)
@jenlooper
You know JavaScript?
You know NativeScript!
@jenlooper
Why Vue for NativeScript?
📱Vue's 2.0 adoption of the virtual DOM enables native mobile rendering (Angular 2+ is similar)
💻 Vue offers a great way for web developers to embrace mobile platforms via NativeScript or Weex
☁️ Vue is lightweight so highly appropriate for mobile
🤝 NativeScript and Vue have great code-sharing potential!
