Not sure if Xamarin still counts as a niche platform. Know a bunch of devs that use it + they have some large customers.

I think the whole "Foo once Bar anywhere" approach is a MacGuffin and actually slows development. But thanks for the share.

very nice analysis. I’ll be very interested to see what direction you end up taking your org, and why.

Cool! I hadn’t seen this. It still is “translation” insofar as the code is ahead-of-time compiled, but this is interesting.

For our purposes, “0-day” refers to beta SDK release at WWDC or !/O—we’ve gotta start experimenting right away!
