Shoutem

@elie_teyssedou Thanks for the comment. To answer you in tl;dr style - you can do anything you imagine! So, let's start. When you create News app, using News extension, you can feel the news in the Shoutem CMS (that includes the dashboard too). All of our extensions are by default connected with Shoutem CMS, but as they're open sourced (https://github.com/shoutem/exten...), you can tweak which backend they use. To make it even simpler, we created a library which handles the API communication over the Redux, called Redux IO (https://github.com/shoutem/redux-io). Using it, you can just describe which API you want to use instead of switching every single API call :).

@franciskim_co Thank you :)

@eniac Yes, it's down the roadmap… or if some good developer develops that before us :)

@marctytus We're working on the migration of the apps from our current customers. We're already able to migrate some of the apps. Feel free to contact us on support@shoutem.com if you have an active app ;)

@preslavrachev Well, you are right! We did think about it. :) With Shoutem, there's no restriction on how you can use React Native. That said, you can use any feature from React Native, including creating completely native modules. All of our extensions (pre-made components) are open sourced (https://github.com/shoutem/exten...) and act as libraries in apps. However, there's one big difference comparing extensions to plain libraries: extensions are designed to be reusable in the multiple apps with their defined structure. That way extensions can rely on each other, which allows you to create very complex apps with reusable building blocks. Do not worry about our CLI. It's here only to speed up the development of the mobile apps, but you can build apps without it.

@samhaseltine Thanks! We'd love to hear your feedback after you try it ;)

@kalamyty You're right. It's a bit confusing. We'll improve that. To sign up as a developer, go to new.shoutem.com and register as a new user. Afterwards, follow the Getting Started tutorial: http://shoutem.github.io/docs/ex... which will describe you how to become developer using Shoutem CLI.
