NativeScript vs Pepperoni: What are the differences?
NativeScript: Build truly native apps with JavaScript. NativeScript enables developers to build native apps for iOS, Android and Windows Universal while sharing the application code across the platforms. When building the application UI, developers use our libraries, which abstract the differences between the native platforms; Pepperoni: A framework to build apps faster, powered by React Native. This Starter Kit reflects the best practices of React Native development we have discovered while building real-world applications for our customers. It is opinionated about tooling, patterns and development practices. It might not be a one-size-fits-all solution for everyone, but feel free to customize it for your needs, or just take inspiration from it.
NativeScript and Pepperoni can be primarily classified as "Cross-Platform Mobile Development" tools.
NativeScript and Pepperoni are both open source tools. It seems that NativeScript with 17.2K GitHub stars and 1.27K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Pepperoni with 4.53K GitHub stars and 708 GitHub forks.
