[RFC] a pure serverside react native which always render in browser like blazor server side

[congzhangzh]

Introduction

A full server-side react native(render remote in browser) for easy and fast desktop/mobile app development like Microsoft Blazor ServerSide, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/hosting-models?view=aspnetcore-6.0 , )

Details

a new react-native Reconciliation, which split diff/patch two-part, one on the main thread like, and another on native browser control!

maybe need something like host.js to create RPC for diff tunnel/UI event tunnel.

Discussion points

1. who needs it? the desktop developer which may need the react ecosystem support! code reuse for desktop/mobile/web fast prototype and deploy

2. possible? sure, as react for android/ios/threejs possible, there is no limit here, but also the magic of web technology

3. valueable

   I think so, as now Microsoft MAUI, Google Flutter all seems cross-platform already or in the future, but also for JetBrains.

4. more to consider

   some little react to support both React Web/React Native/React Remote?

5. why?

   the productivity/the web ecosystem/the react ecosystem and hate about Microsoft's slow and messy, https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics.Controls/issues/57
