Javascript For Mobile with Burke Holland

• Tell us about yourself and what you do!
• How does mobile development work?
• How is mobile development different from making a desktop program?
• What is NativeScript / React Native? 
• Why use JavaScript for native development?
• If I have to make a website anyways, why not just wrap my existing website into an app (e.g. Cordova)?
• How do you think mobile development will change in the next few years?
