it is quite funny that the more you will follow this thought process to make everything more customizable, the more browser-like environment you will recreate. eg, rendering custom layout based on a file (html), styling from a file (css) and so on.

Edit: typos

Facebook actually does something reminiscent of this (flexbox layouts and all). Means updating a page/surface is just a matter of pushing an update to the server-side codebase (no two week release trains!). As far as I remember, the vast majority of stuff that wasn't written in React Native used this (called native templates).

Or you could just use React Native and push new features directly to the app...
