Mini-program (tiny-app) is a very convenient and successful way to enrich the content and functions in an app, it’s ability to enrich an app’s ecosystem has been proven in China’s WeChat and AliPay apps.
We would like to embed such functionality in our app. However, most of the materials that can be searched on the web is about how to build/develop a mini-program instead of how to build such a framework in an app, both for Android and iOS.
Is there any material/document about how to build a mini-program framework in an app? (NOT how to build a mini-program)
It turns out that the solution I am looking for is actually NOT a mini-program "FRAMEWORK" but a mini-program "ENGINE". A mini-program framework refers to something that helps the development of mini-programs, including some libraries, UI components, maybe even a IDE. Instead, a mini-program engine is a component which we can integrate into our app, so that it downloads packages of different business from remote URLs and executes them.
After I changed my search keyword to "mini-program engine", the results pop out. The following is some open source projects related to mini-program engine I found:
