@ryandesign "*no app that uses *v8 or *nodejs would ever* be approved by Apple to be offered on the app stores. ".. this is a little bit wrong. Instead 'ever', 'not yet' would suit better since jxcore team already replacing v8 to llvm backed compiler. So.. an app may use nodejs then compiled by jxcore and finally can be placed on app store.
