Let's Avoid Vendor Lock-In.</strong></p> <p>I've being making myself this question for already long time. <em>Clearly Android success has being due to it's SDK and appeal to developers</em>, so why the people in the OpenSource community have not develop a SDK like that with already known technologies like Kotlin, TypeScript, etc. which already have a large community around them.</p> <p>Also, to provide the opportunities to create a central OpenSource store/repo where to buy and get the apps and to create the possibilities for other to create their own.</p> <p>Let's avoid vendor lock-in.</p> <p>What are your thoughts on this matter?</p> sdk opensource kotlin typescript
