Extend existing iOS app with hybrid watchOS app

Question

I have an existing iOS application written in Swift. I want to extend this application with watchOS app. Is it possible to write hybrid app (for example Angular.js) for watchOS in this scenario?

Answer 1

At the moment, there is no way to write non-native watchOS apps, so you cannot use Angular.js for instance when creating a watchOS extension.

You can only write watchOS apps using Objective-C or Swift, so even if you have a "hybrid" iOS app written using Cordova for instance, you'll need to manually add a watchOS target to your Cordova project and write the watchOS code in Objective-C or Swift.
