react-tv
A React renderer and CLI for building TV applications on low-memory devices like webOS and SmartTVs.
What is react-tv?
React-TV is a React renderer and development ecosystem specifically designed for building applications on TV platforms like LG webOS and SmartTVs. It addresses the unique performance challenges of TVs, such as limited memory and single-core CPUs, by providing an optimized renderer and a CLI for packaging and deployment. The project enables developers to use React's declarative paradigm to create TV user interfaces with built-in support for spatial navigation.
Frontend developers and teams building applications for SmartTV platforms, particularly those targeting LG webOS, who want to leverage React's component model while optimizing for TV hardware constraints.
Developers choose React-TV because it provides a specialized React renderer tailored for TV performance limitations, along with a unified CLI toolchain for building across multiple TV platforms. Its integration with spatial navigation and platform-specific utilities reduces the complexity of developing responsive, navigable TV apps compared to generic web solutions.
