Chapter 6. Platform Differences

Since NativeScript wraps components on each of the platforms in a consistent fashion, there are some differences between each implementation. The actual underlying native components are implemented differently by Apple and Google engineers. You will understand how to deal with the differences in platforms and with the differences in devices on each platform.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

• Android and iOS differences

• Code differences

• Platform class

• Declarative UI

• Platform- and device-specific files

• Screen size differences

• Device differences
