## Firestack vs Firebase JS lib
1818

19-
Although the [Firebase](https://www.npmjs.com/package/firebase) JavaScript library will work with React Native, it's designed for the web and/or server. The native SDKs provide much needed features specifically for mobile applications such as offline persistance. Firestack provides a JavaScript interface into the native SDKs to allow your React Native application to utilise these features, and more!

The native SDK's are much better for performance compared to the web SDK. The web SDK will run on the same thread as your apps ([JS thread](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/performance.html#javascript-frame-rate)) therefore limiting your JS framerate, potentially affecting things touch events and transitions/animations.

The native SDK's also contains functionality that the web SDK's do not, for example [Analytics](/docs/api/analytics.md).
