{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Rendering NativeScript templates on the web (nothing to do with WebView)","articleBody":"I am interested in expanding the idea of NativeScript modules from iOS and Android to the web. I am just starting to get into NativeScript, so there may be some things I am missing here, it seems like there is no reason why you can't translate something like this:\n\n```\n\u003cLabel text=\"hello world\" /\u003e \n```\n\nto\n\n```\n\u003cspan\u003ehello, world\u003c/span\u003e\n```\n\nYes, I picked something super easy, but my point is just that I believe the number of things that don't have literally ANY web equivalent are extremely small. To prove my point, you can see the React community trying to do exactly what I am suggesting here with React Native:\n\nhttps://github.com/necolas/react-native-web\n\nI use Angular 2 so I know it is possible at the very least to create a new Angular 2 renderer that reads in NativeScript XML and spits out HTML, but I would imagine that this may be the type of thing we want deeper in NativeScript core.\n\nI guess I am looking for feedback from the NativeScript community on two levels:\n1. Feasibility of doing NativeScript for the Web\n2. Assuming it is not impossible and there is interest, thoughts on how to best organize this type of effort\n\nI don't have the bandwidth to do something like this by myself, but if there were other people interested I would love to work together to make this happen.\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/jeffwhelpley","@type":"Person","name":"jeffwhelpley"},"datePublished":"2016-02-23T02:33:13.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":29},"url":"https://github.com/1612/NativeScript/issues/1612"}
