* fix: crash on Android Tab-View NativeScript#6466 This fix has been tested in production with no new issues occurring. Long-term solution would be one of the following, though: 1. reintroduce overrides for `saveState`/`restoreState` in the current PagerAdapter implementation (removed on this commit NativeScript@ac04ede#diff-f1459d509d1432b432c29bcd30e462fbL97) 2. use FragmentPagerAdapter 3. use FragmentStatePagerAdapter Both 2 and 3 manage the save/restore cycles. The main difference between 2 and 3 is that 2 uses more memory, but allows for quicker switching between Fragments than 3. Since tabs should usually be limited to 5 or less, this may be the best choice to maintain performance, which is important for top level navigation tabs. When I have more time I may experiment with these options myself to see what the difference to performance and memory consumption is for each. * refactor: _commitCurrentTransaction method+comment * chore: fix typo * fix: missing class definition
NativeScript 
NativeScript is a framework for building native iOS and Android apps using JavaScript and CSS. NativeScript renders UIs with the native platform’s rendering engine, no WebViews, resulting in native-like performance and UX.
NativeScript provides a best-of-both-worlds development experience. Our cross-platform JavaScript modules give you the convenience of writing iOS and Android apps from a single JavaScript codebase, while our runtimes give you the power of accessing native APIs, SDKs, and frameworks when you need them—all without needing to open Xcode or Android Studio. NativeScript was created and is supported by Telerik.

Repositories
The NativeScript framework consists of a number of components, all of which are open source and on GitHub. Here are the major ones:
- Cross-platform modules
- This repo contains the NativeScript cross-platform modules, which abstract iOS and Android APIs into JavaScript APIs—e.g.
camera.takePicture(). The modules are written in TypeScript.
- This repo contains the NativeScript cross-platform modules, which abstract iOS and Android APIs into JavaScript APIs—e.g.
- iOS runtime
- This repo contains the NativeScript iOS runtime—the code that hosts NativeScript iOS apps, and allows JavaScript code to be executed on iOS devices. The iOS runtime is written in a fun mix of C++, Objective-C, and more.
- Android runtime
- This repo contains the NativeScript Android—the code that hosts NativeScript Android apps, and allows JavaScript code to be executed on Android devices. The Android runtime is written in a fun mix of C++ and Java.
- CLI
- This repo contains the NativeScript command-line interface, which lets you create, build, and run apps using the NativeScript framework. The CLI is written in TypeScript.
- Docs
- This repo contains the NativeScript framework documentation, which is available at http://docs.nativescript.org/. The docs are written in Markdown.
In addition to the code that makes up the NativeScript framework itself, we also provide a number of open-source sample apps that you can reference while building your NativeScript application.
Contributing
We love PRs, and accept them for all of our repositories—even docs! Please follow our contribution guide if you want to become part of the project.
Angular
We worked together with the Google Angular team to make Angular 2+ work on top of NativeScript. To use Angular with NativeScript please follow the getting started article.
