Hi, Remi from Fuse here. This blog post (by yours truly) is over a year old now so some details are bound to have changed, but from a tech-philosophy standpoint I think it's still valid: https://medium.com/fuseblog/how-fuse-differs-from-react-nati...

Hi, Remi from Fusetools here. In Fuse JavaScript is merely used as a scripting language to write business logic & tie the app together, so it's quite different from web & mobile frameworks where it's responsible for "everything". Native integrations are done in Swift / ObjC / Java, and all things visual & animation is handled in declarative markup. Working with business logic in JS also allows us to do instant preview updates when you change your code, which is one of the few things I've envied web-developers. :) And of course, a good argument for using JS rather than <some other script language> for this is the volume of developers (and to some extent non-developers) who can use it, as well as the amount of available resources & information out there.

Hi, I'm Remi from Fusetools. This interview with our CEO Anders does a good job of summarizing what we're about: https://www.forbes.com/sites/julianmitchell/2017/06/29/this-... (feel free to skip past the intro about why app development is A Thing :)

TL;DR We're primarily about being able to create cool stuff in less time (cross-platform is just a side-effect of that). A lot of what we build comes down to creating good workflows for going from idea to the final product, and to find the right level of abstraction so that you can work very quickly (staying focused on the real job rather than boilerplate and glue code) without giving up control and being sandboxed.
