In this episode, I talk to One’s lead developer, Nate Wienert.
One is unique because it supports doing React and React native in the same project, using Vite. One has file-based routing, and supports SPA, Static, and server rendering modes. One also includes Tamagui, a React styling system that works on both web and mobile. We also discuss Zero, which is an optional companion library that’s coming soon. Zero will provide local oriented data, which should feel familiar to native developers who often use local databases. Zero will perform smart sync between client and server, caching, and more.
