What is keeping me? A project and the feasibility. The amber project we could 
do because the project was more of a research project so I said "why not". For 
anything serious you need to check if it is feasible to use. And my trials with 
PharoJS were only little so I don't have the feeling, yet, if it is a huge 
benefit using it. But I feel a huge potential in it so it is on my list of 
things I wanna try but not on top.

Very cool, Norbert. I have been watching what you are doing at 2denker and
thought you might be interested ;)

What is holding you back - do you need more from PharoJS before starting to
use it commercially, or are you waiting for a (paid) project before you can
start?

I thought I responded already. We are interested in pharoJS. We developed stuff 
with amber but stopped using it. We have one app in the app store with ionic 
and amber and I'd like to do another one with pharoJS. Additionally I think 
that combining pharoJS with electron could be a nice thing to have in order to 
create desktop apps. And finally I was shortly researching native callouts from 
javascript with javascript core on ios and it seems you can do pharo code, 
transpile to javascript that calls javascript functions which are OS-native 
functions.
