NOTE: VERY EARLY PROOF OF CONCEPT (NOT USABLE)

Zulip Mobile is a new, experimental mobile client written in Javascript with React Native. The current goal is to assess whether React Native makes sense as a long-term direction for the mobile apps.

It will initially target iOS only (although most of the code will be cross-platform).

Pros:

• Support iOS and Android with one codebase
• Familiar web programming model (React + Javascript + Flexbox)

Cons:

• Potential performance issues
• Greater technical risk (new ecosystem, not as battle-tested as native code)
