DocumentationStatus & roadmap

Status & roadmap

wrst is an early-stage MVP. It works end-to-end - you can develop and ship release builds on both Wear OS and Apple Watch - but the API is small and still evolving, and not everything is battle-tested. Expect rough edges, and please open issues .

What works today

  • Writing React-style components in TypeScript that render on Wear OS and Apple Watch from one codebase.
  • Reactive state (useState), effects (useEffect), and navigation.
  • A built-in runtime: fetch, localStorage, timers, Device, motion sensors, and runtime permissions.
  • Standalone and companion (React Native) apps.
  • Live reload during development, and release builds that run offline.

Known limitations

  • The component set and style props are still growing.
  • The two native renderers are kept design-identical, but not every prop is supported on both yet.
  • APIs may change between 0.x releases.
  • Companion app set up requires some manual steps, documentation, tutorials, and, hopefully, automations will come soon.

Roadmap

The direction is to keep both native renderers in lock-step while expanding UI capabilities and the runtime. For the latest, watch the GitHub repository .

Found something missing or broken? Issues and PRs are very welcome - early feedback shapes what gets built next.
