    yeah, it displays native widgets but there is still a js engine (browser) running in the background. So the basically made a layer between native components and Javascript. But the code which is running is js and js is slow.

      JS by itself is very fast (it’s one of the fastest dynamic languages). It’s interop with platforms APIs that is slow, at the fact that each React app spins up its own instance of Chromium also doesn’t help.
