That’s right—you can access all native APIs, not only the ones we thought would be useful! We did not want to create just yet another ecosystem around a native cross-platform framework. We wanted to integrate and play well with all existing JavaScript and native iOS/Android/Windows ecosystems. That is why we also support using existing JavaScript libraries, as well as existing native Objective-C, Java and .NET libraries. We want to stress that you *don't need to know Objective-C, Java or .NET* in order to reuse these libraries—their entire APIs are available in JavaScript with no changes. -Because of the features listed above you get some important functionality right out of the box. The first is that NativeScript applications support the same accessibility models as native apps.

This is also very useful when you start implementing functional or unit tests for your app. Several existing cross-platform tools like [Appium](http://www.appium.io) already work directly with NativeScript and provide accessibility automation. +Because of the features listed above you get some important functionality right out of the box.
