Hippy is like a simplified browser, which has done a lot of work from the bottom layer, smoothed out the differences between iOS and Android, and provided a development experience close to the Web. At present, the upper layer supports two sets of interface frameworks, React and Vue, through which front-end developers can convert front-end codes into native instructions to develop native apps.

At the same time, Hippy has made a lot of optimization from the bottom layer, providing top performance in startup speed, reusable list components, rendering efficiency, animation speed, network communication, etc.
