The React Native team at Facebook is building a new sub-team to support React Native Windows and macOS in close collaboration with Microsoft. If you have experience building native Windows and macOS applications or frameworks, we are hiring! DM @Eli_White 👇🏽thread

One of Facebook’s top level company priorities is to help people feel present with each other, no matter where they are. Messenger Desktop is using React Native on Windows and macOS to build out the most delightful experience we can for millions of people connecting over video.

@reactnative @Eli_White Wooho nice !! Road to React native 1.0, here we come

@reactnative @Eli_White Interesting ✨✨✨

@reactnative @Eli_White I think Linux deserves much more support form you, It’s much better than Win!

@reactnative @Eli_White Thanks, we need native apps, please stop this electron nonsense

@reactnative @Eli_White Does experience with Electron count? 😂 All kidding aside, this is awesome. Can’t wait to use this down the road! 👏

@reactnative @Eli_White This is a great news, what if Linux system, is there a reason you are yet to support them.

@reactnative @Eli_White I’m very happy about that. I wanted to rebuild our desktop app with react native but it was very sad that I couldn’t find it ready yet for production

@reactnative @Eli_White What about Linux? @Microsoft ❤️ Linux , right?

@reactnative @Eli_White Built my first GDI+ Windows App 15 years ago. Have built Windows Apps using Silver light , WPF , UWP and Xamarin Forms since then.

@reactnative @Eli_White @anaseeen as expected bye bye #xamarin

@reactnative @Eli_White So is this an Electron competitor?

@reactnative @Eli_White Oh yesh @diogomqbm_
