Shopify 从 React Native 回归原生开发

Native is now the future of mobile at Shopify

精选理由

Shopify 这家大公司终于决定从 React Native 回归原生开发,他们觉得现在的 AI 工具能帮上忙了,值得看看他们为什么这么做。

Shopify 决定从 React Native 回归 Swift 和 Kotlin 原生开发,原因是现在的 AI 辅助工具(agents)能处理足够多的实现、翻译、测试和审查工作,不再像 2020 年那样是决定因素。他们承认 React Native 在过去六年是很好的平台,并计划将三个 React Native 库转移到新家,其中 restyle 库因用户量小将在 2026 年底被归档。

Native is now the future of mobile at Shopify

Native is now the future of mobile at Shopify Shopify are moving from React Native back to separate Swift and Kotlin codebases for their native apps, for the exact reason you would expect: We decided to switch from native to React Native in 2020 for three reasons: Stop building the same features twice Allow developers to work across the stack Spend less time chasing feature parity and more time shipping value [...] Native still means building and maintaining software on two platforms, that cost has not disappeared. What changed is that agents can now do enough of the implementation, translation, testing, and review work that it’s no longer the deciding factor it was in 2020. It's a well-written post, which gives full credit to React Native as a great platform for the six years they were using it. Shopify are the maintainers of three significant React Native libraries: react-native-skia , flash-list , and restyle . The first two are finding new homes; the third "has a smaller user base than our other libraries" and will be archived at the end of 2026.
