## What it is
GaiaX is a lightweight, cross-platform dynamic template engine from Alibaba's Youku team that renders pure native UI cards on Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS from a single template. It includes a visual template builder (Studio), data binding via expressions, and hot-update/preview tooling for the full development workflow.

## Use cases
- render dynamic native cards on android and ios from one template
- low-code ui template rendering for mobile apps
- hot-update mobile ui without app release
- build feed card templates visually and preview on device
- cross-platform native rendering with flexbox and css
- data-driven dynamic ui for mobile clients

## When to choose
- you need pure native rendering performance with dynamic, updatable card UIs on Android/iOS/HarmonyOS
- you want a visual template builder and real-device preview workflow
- your team wants low-code UI driven by templates and data binding

## When to avoid
- you need web-based or WebView rendering rather than native views
- your app targets platforms outside Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS
- you prefer a full reactive UI framework like Flutter or React Native over template-based cards
