Learn how to build native mobile apps efficiently using Hotwire Native in this comprehensive conference talk from RailsConf 2025. Discover how to eliminate the need to build screens three times (web, iOS, and Android) by leveraging HTML and CSS to create reusable components across all platforms. Explore how existing Hotwire-enabled Rails applications can be transformed into mobile apps without requiring expertise in Swift or Kotlin. Watch as the speaker demonstrates building iOS and Android apps from scratch in a live coding session, covering essential concepts, practical implementation tips, and common pitfalls encountered when working with Hotwire Native. Understand how thin platform wrappers enable continuous deployment where changes to your Rails codebase automatically update all three platforms simultaneously. Gain insights from years of experience working with Hotwire Native since 2016, including best practices for Rails developers looking to expand into mobile app development without the traditional complexity and cost associated with native mobile development.
