Creating Native iOS and Android Apps Scala without tears

on YouTube ↗46m

" summary

A pair of functioning CRUD apps for iOS and Android run with a single Scala codebase: Scala compiled to JavaScript via Scala.js + React Native, a lightweight wrapper called Skaar framework, and shared server models so the client and backend exchange Scala objects. Persistence uses Quill + SQLite through a React Native plugin and a serialized DB dispatcher that publishes updates to subscribed screens. Challenges include Metro timeouts solved with a custom transformer, JS-object macros for case classes, and the system is production-used though not yet open-sourced.
