Nativescript push notifications with 3rd party Push services - javascript

I'm getting ready to build a Cross-Platform app using NativeScript and was wondering if the Push notification package they offer supports integration with 3rd party push services. I would think so, but I notice some of the sites for the push services actually list the Dev Platforms they support. Carnival for example has a special package for React-Native. Any one have any experience with this?

I saw that you have already found your answer in Nativescript repository but in order to share the knowledge with the community I am going to post the link to the discussion here
As Brad Martin said - Yes - you can use 3rd parties services.
Anyone interested can see his article on that matter here

How to Broadcast (From one to multiple peers) using Webrtc and Firebase

I know that firebase can be used with webrtc and I was easily able to go through creating a one to one video-audio calling webapp.
I'm Trying to Create a One to several peer broadcasting system,(like twitch) and when i tried to know how it can be done, i found this, its pretty old and i cant figure out how i can implement it with firebase.
If there are any npm packages which can help me achieve this or any guide I can refer to, it would be great if you could share them. I'm using ReactJS.
I haven't created a WebRTC + firebase one-to-many streaming application myself yet, but here are a few resources I'd look at if I was:
Coding with Chaim
Doug TV site walkthrough
awesome-webrtc repository has a lot of gems
Since you asked about other npm packages, there's also daily-js, but I'm biased. Full disclosure: I work at Daily. You could use the daily-js call object to handle some of the WebRTC complexity. We built a React + daily-js webinar, which could be similar to the one-to-many use case you're building (here's the first blog post and sample code).

What are the options for using Meteor JS to implement Android push notification

I am a newbie to Meteor JS so please pardon me if my question is sort of stupid. I've been struggling to find the right way to implement push notification on Android with Meteor JS. It seems like the options out there are surprisingly limited. I've looked into Raix Push, but unfortunately it didn't work for me.
I was wondering if anyone has found a way that still works today to successfully implement push notification on a Meteor JS application (whether through OneSignal SDK, Raix or something else)? If so, can you please be so kind to tell me what the method is, so at least I have a general direction to follow?
Thank you in advance!
I'm using Meteor on one of my bigger projects and have successfully implemented Push Notifications.
I used Raix/Push package combined with FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging).
There are plenty options like you mentioned yourself but for me the mentioned one was the best.
RAIX/Push only does the sending of push messages to your cloude service (e.g. FCM) and does the token management. But you need to configure the FCM service yourself so it knows, who is a client, who do I send a push notification to..
When you build a APK with Meteor you will get an Android Project which is an Cordova Enviornment which runs your Meteor Application.
You need to follow the steps given in your FCM console (console.firebase.google.com) and bind in some custom data and manipulate gradle and xml files here and there. (You will find detailed explanations there).
edit
here you can see my old post explaining my own mistakes done with FCM/GCM and raix/push

Web UI for a REST API

I wrote a REST API in Node.js (with Express)that implements a queue with some dequeue/enqueue functionality, and the next step is creating a web view for that API.
I am really new to javascript and Node.js , can i have some pointers on how to implement it? is there a framework I can use to integrate the api.js i built with a front-end?
When you wrote a REST api using nodejs and the expressjs framework, you are perfectly prepared to use the complete MEAN stack, which implements angularJS for frontend services.
Angular offers a complete REST implementation (called ngResource). Install via npm.
With the angular resource service you get your frontend interface (to interact with your backend) out of the box (except a few adaptations you'll have to make, e.g. to make it work with Mongoose, which is used to make the access to your MongoDB more comfortable).
You'll find a few superb tutorials, as this one and others on scotch.io are some of them. Google for 'api rest angular resource mean ...' in different selections ;-)
Other links that helped me a lot:
Tutorial from Angular itself
Thinkster.io - complete MEAN stack overview with examples
a helpful tutorial with good examples from Frederik Dietz
Buecheler comes out with this great tutorial, but its more about the backend side - as you might check your code againt the basic standards of a REST backend implementation.
Those are some of the links I noted and that could find ad hoc.
EDIT:
As your headline suggests you are searching for an UI, I suppose IBM Strongloop might be a good hint for you. IBM is strongly interconnected with the development of ExpressJS and offers this API and UI for probably all data concerning questions of your Webapp.

work with OAuth2 in appcelerator

I'm trying to implement a OAuth2 appcelerator connector for Studio to connect to a wordpress (WP has installed plugins REST API, OAuth2 server). And appcelerator download this module https://github.com/JiriChara/titanium-oauth2-client, but it is a version of 2012 which certainly has flaws. Unfortunately I could not make them work together.
I want to ask the community (Since it is the first time I am developing this type of connection between an app and a website in wordpress), if they have any solution please.
Thank you very much
I think that since the oAuth protocol hasn't changed, you should still be able to use that library you linked to. I see that it hasn't been updated in a while - and maybe that's because there is nothing to update.
If you encounter specific problems using the library you can clone the source and try to fix (maybe even revive the project and push back to GIT).
Basically, oAuth is a set of HTTP calls - so you can write it on your own. But since a lot of the job was already made in that module I would try to get it working and push whatever fixes I can so others searching for the same thing can enjoy it as well.
Take a look at this repo. It is an Appcelerator Titanium widget that was written to work with Azure oAuth2 but it would only take slight modifications to make it work with other oAuth2 systems. I was successful doing this for a recent project.
https://github.com/grantges/co.grantges.azure.adal
The first is that they can update the code (include to require) . I also try to take this module, but does not work .

Does React Native currently support accessing a user's Address Book

It does not look like the core React Native APIs has anything listed for Address Book on iOS. This seems like a core thing you would need to do in an app.
Is this something that just needs to be built, or is there a particular reason there seems to be no info on this?
I have begun work on a Native Module that supports reading from a users contacts, once granted permission.
react-native-addressbook-ios
I just don't think it's been addressed yet, and there's not even anything in the Github issue tracker. The RN team do seem to have some things internally at Facebook that still haven't been made public, so we might see it from them in the future but the best way to find out would be to create a new issue to track any work on a Contacts API. I've done that for you here.
