Lynx: Open Source Native Cross Platform framework used in TikTok

Today, we’re excited to introduce Lynx, a family of technologies empowering developers to use their existing web skills to create truly native UIs for both mobile and web from a single codebase. Designed for diverse use cases and rich interactivity, Lynx delivers vibrant and engaging UIs for large-scale apps like TikTok, featuring a speedy, versatile rendering engine, performance-driven dual-threaded UI programming, modern Rust-based tooling, and more!

We deeply appreciate all the prior arts that have shaped the field of cross-platform development, and aspire to contribute to this movement by open sourcing Lynx today, inviting more developers to build applications with more freedom and productivity.

Hmm this looks like an excellent alternative to React Native although it doesn’t call itself that and actually complements React and the "write once, run everywhere movement".

The challenge is: since it’s new, anyone who adopts it is going to be burnt as a pioneer if they encounter new issues. But this is tech and trailblazing is the name of the game.

Looking forward to how Lynx pans out in the next few years and if it will stand the test of time.

I’m looking forward to seeing how it goes - out of all the big social media companies TikTok is probably the most respected/liked. I think more people will be interested in using one of their frameworks because of this, so it could become quite popular…

Yep. It does look good. Plus the documentation looks dope too.

I don’t want to get burned as pioneer so I’ll lay back for bit and watch. But I’m happy that React Native finally got some credible competition.

Where Next?
