Hi, I am considering using Redwood/Treehouse. What advantages do Redwood/Treehouse have over React Native?

It operates on the scope of design system widgets and not atomic widgets like a general purpose UI toolkit contains. Therefore writing screens is dramatically simpler, once you've built a corpus of widgets.

It's not JS. Pretty much enough said there

At least half your team have their skills be directly translated through to use of Compose and Kotlin

And since the bindings operate at the level of your design system, native platform engineers shouldn't feel like this is an entirely foreign system that is replacing them. Instead it's a way for their work making native UI delightful to be utilized in more places

Also we'll run entirely on Wasm much sooner than React native will, if they ever will.

It’s a library and not a framework. You can introduce one Redwood powered screen into your app without wrecking your developer experience for the rest of the team
