How Dactyl Works

Dactyl is a development platform that enables LLM-based native app creation without compromises by using Swift and SwiftUI as its primary language, rather than cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter that sacrifice performance or features. The platform features a browser-based iOS simulator built as a WebAssembly port that allows developers to preview apps in real-time without needing a Mac or expensive cloud infrastructure. Dactyl's rendering engine reimplements SwiftUI across multiple Apple frameworks and uses an efficient draw-command system to achieve smooth performance while supporting cross-platform deployment to iOS, Android, and the web.
