Finally for Android! Cool to see a cross-platform implementation of this, and how much can be done by one person and some reasonable gear.


Yes, I was very excited we were able to release it for Android… And even though we used React Native, there were so many native (and C++) bits, it ended up being quite complex!

As for the gear, I think it’s really damaging that so many people think Deep Learning is only for people with large datasets, cloud farms (and PhDs) — as the app proves, you can do a lot with just data you curate by hand, a laptop (and a lowly Master’s degree :p)


Do you think it's possible to generalize the way you handled the cross-platform complexity into a shared component?


Does this work with the new syncing stuff?


(Adam from Realm) No this version does not include sync functionality, it is just for use with Realm locally. We wanted to expose it to the Node.js community as we think it has value on its own--such as interprocess communication as mentioned in the article.

However, stay tuned more updates around sync very soon!


When will UWP be supported? Kind of important for me.


[name redacted] here. We don't have a specific timeline for it, but it's being planned. See https://github.com/realm/realm-dotnet/issues/509


What about PhoneGap? Seems weird to support React Native but not PhoneGap.


But no Markdown support. :(
