Show HN: nativeCSS launches iOS apps styling with CSS

I just tried out NUI this weekend (https://github.com/createch/bullrunnerapp), and ended up abandoning halfway through. My code became worse because of it. Some of the style code is in the ViewController, some of it is in the NSS file. Going to have to test nativeCSS.

Looks like this could be better than NUI. Unlike NUI:

- You can have multiple selectors, like in normal CSS

- More css-like names, border-radius (rather than border-width as NUI calls it)

- Shorthand properties border: 1px solid #fff;

- Shorthand color codes: #fff

    textview,textfield{
       border-radius:0px;
       background-color:#fff; 
       padding:5px;
       border:1px solid darkgrey;
       margin:auto;
       width:90%;
    }

Also, $10/app is much better than Pixate's $199 license.

There's a video here: http://youtu.be/SgdFxiY5nvg

And a sample app you can play with here: http://nativecss.com/docs/tutorials/intro/ios

Website does not give me any reason why would I prefer this to iOS appearance proxy. Is there any?

Sweet! Is there going to be an Android version?

Doubt how good it is compared to Pixate which has fabulous Playground demo app in AppStore.

Is this something like PhoneGap to mix HTML/JS and native code?

perhaps you'd like to use -nativecss as the prefix rather than -ios? you'd hope styles would be portable across platforms?
