Description

I'm submitting a feature request

Current behavior:

Nativescript has a Typescript / Angular2 integration to allow for building mobile apps with Angular2, but no integration with Aurelia. The Nativescript / Angular2 integration is discussed here: https://www.nativescript.org/nativescript-is-how-you-build-native-mobile-apps-with-angular

Expected/desired behavior:

Implement an equivalent integration with Nativescript for Aurelia (either Typescript or ES6)

  • What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

There's currently no good way to build mobile apps with Aurelia as Cordova is often too slow to be useful. This would provide a good semi-native framework for building mobile apps using Aurelia.

Research how Aurelia's plugin system allows integration with external frameworks. Study the existing Angular/Nativescript integration for reference. Examine Aurelia's source code to understand its lifecycle and rendering. Discuss with the community on Gitter for guidance on implementation approach.
