BabylonjsNative latest update?

Hello,

I have these quick questions about babylon native…

  1. What is the performance of babylonjs native now compared to babylonjs webview? (Is it still not as good because of JS runtime?)

  2. Is there a possibility of making AAA games?

  3. Does it support vulkan yet? (I have actually worked on a demo for bgfx with vulkan + sdl2. Looking into the possibility of contributing in the future)

Overall, not much has changed.

For iOS, this is still an issue since the platform disallows JIT. Other platforms can use v8 which will have similar performance with Chrome or Edge.

This really depends on the game, but for iOS specifically, it will be difficult due to the first point.

We looked into it for a bit before and it worked at some point, but no one depends on it and it got broken again after some changes. It hopefully isn’t too difficult to bring back if you want to contribute.
