All these solutions tend to have the same downsides :&lt;p&gt;- limited access to new platform features. Especially damaging when Apple tells you that you are going to get featured if you do a Watch app but your SDK does not support that yet.&lt;p&gt;- one design does not scale well to two platforms with different UX and features.&lt;p&gt;- one more layer of abstraction to manage; making maintainability harder&lt;p&gt;I think that there is clearly a space for a cross platform business logic framework though. It tends to be the same on both platform with minor differences. It is a pity that only j2objc seems to clearly target this. k2objc&amp;#x2F;swift would be awesome.</text><parent_chain><item><author>maxfurman</author><text>Does this mean that Kotlin -&amp;gt; React -&amp;gt; React Native is feasible too?
