I've been working on this product for over a year, it's great to finally get to share it with everyone. If you want to know more I wrote a blog post about the journey and how the product works: https://medium.com/bourbonltd/pr... Feel free to ask any questions!

@bernardgatt Will one be able to build a mobile app (publishable on the stores) with just Bourbon? Thanks in advance.

@filipe_silva4 yes, that is also possible. The Malta Comic Con app is built entirely using Engine.

@bernardgatt What are the main differences between Bourbon and Jasonette?

@filipe_silva4 Bourbon Engine has a built-in design system and any data fetching / processing is done completely server side. All templates are versioned and stored on the server making it very easy to iterate / A/B test on a live product.

@bernardgatt Looks very neat! Does it also handle user interactions (click, swipe)?

@bharath_mg1 thank you :) yes, you can push and pop new views on the stack, trigger system events like opening an email client / browser or trigger events that are handled by a native parent app. If you want to see a real life example you can download the Malta Comic Con app from the App/Play Store.
