Native Mobile Apps in JavaScript with Tabris.js

As you might know I’m a big fan of the Ionic Framework, and also of all hybrid frameworks which can help to create 2 apps out of 1 code base. Today I want to highlight the rather new and unknown JavaScript framework Tabris.js. In contrast to many other hybrid frameworks, Tabris.js is no HTML5 + WebView framework, but still offers the possibility to use Javascript libraries, npm modules and Cordova plugins! I will show you the strengths, we will develop a simple app to get a feeling for the code structure and finally inspect the similarities and differences to other well known frameworks. Sounds good? Let’s take a closer look!
