Ask HN: Has anyone on here built anything using Weex?

3 points by roryisok ↗ HN
I'm building a web-app using vue-js and I'd dearly love to be able to use it to build a companion mobile app. Looks like Weex is just what I need. I'm wondering if any of you have taken the plunge and built something with it? If so, what issues did you come across, if any? What are its strengths and weaknesses?

Well I'm trying to build something but it's tough since there aren't a lot of english resources. Most of the articles or tutorials out there are chinese.

Right now for example I'd like to to use the iOS simulator with hot reload and can't get it to work. But yeah the basics work, so if you haven't got anything too fancy you can give it a try. If you need some special modules or something it's gonna be difficult compared to react native where you have a wealth of addons.

You could take a look at Nativescript as well. Though it's more in the early stages and of course backed by Telerik (who probably want you to sell you components or something at some point) which kinda steered me away from it.
