We are proud to announce JavaScript SDK 2.0 and React Native SDK 2.0 are generally available!
With this new release, we introduce a new API for requests based on Promises, so no more callback hells! Also we did a complete re-wrote of SDK’s code using modern JavaScript lang syntax: classes, promises, arrow functions, let/const and so on. Besides this, we switched to a universal XMPP library for chat across all platforms which allowed us to reduce SDK size up to 15%.
Just like the 1.x version, JS SDK 2.0 supports all the most popular environments like Browser, Cordova/Ionic, Node, React Native, NativeScript and Electron, so basically we cover all of the existing platforms where JavaScript lang can be used. This brings a huge opportunity to build cross-platform apps and share the same codebase across Web, Mobile and Desktop apps.
