Just remembering: Flutter is migrating to the Impeller engine, leaving Skia behind. It's already open to development for iOS apps if I remember correctly, but still not fully suported in all platforms.

[@marcpanther8515]

The title is missing "mobile" in the string. Qt, etc?

[@garygoodwin3461]

How do you not include MAUI in this?

[@psclip3309]

surprisingly, the slint framework with rust is very good, I tried the demo GUI application, the animation is very smooth and fast, I don't know if it's better than flutter because it uses rust which is very fast, flutter uses the new Render impeller.

[@WorstDeveloper]

It's interesting, but it seems like they don't have mobile support yet. And it also has subscriptions and royalties.

[@pungkuss]

I think Google just got rid of the Skia rendering engine in flutter. They created Impeller from scratch.

[@galaxies_dev]

Oh nice sounds interesting!

[@ShadowedOnion]

Hi Simon, I was wondering if you would mind stating what you think the best choice would be of these three in my case? I am starting what is primarily a web application for businesses that will have a B2C portal available later in development via an app. As I am likely to be the sole developer on this for a while, I thought it would be best to use a cross-platform application for the initial delivery of the product, then maybe switch to using a dedicated native app build later down the line. I already have react experience, but I am happy learning anything. Thanks!

Flutter is the king. One day it will render faster than native. Others can't really compete with it :)

@@dleonardo3238 did you even see how your website looks compated to flutter? Like some old dinosaur. The way how patch notes are written and how community reacts? Maybe you can render faster than Flutter's new impeller engine?) Even native can't. Your kmp is a dead born technology. When Flutter was made it was solving a problem of performance and coding simplicity in react native, what does kmp try to solve in Flutter?) Flutter is perfect and until there is no problems it's impossible to replace with some dull kmp..

I'm curious to know why you switched from Angular to React Native - I don't think you answered that in this video? PS: I disagree with you with respect to PWAs, they are the definitive cross-platform environment, and now that Apple is finally supporting push notifications from web apps the need to go though the App Store is eliminated for PWAs.

[@galaxies_dev]

I'm curious where or when I said that I switched from Angular to React Native? Because that's not true.

[@geoffbomford2927]

@@galaxies_dev You made a comment (where the twits hang out) on May 15 that seemed pretty definitive that you were going to focus on React Native exclusively in the future. I must have misunderstood?

[@masterandroid5104]

I am using ionic 6 and angular 14 and works perfect but I see with my customers that it's not more necessary make a native application because he prefers an website with sms and emails notifications and email and phone to auth, so I guess the demand for mobile apps will decline in the coming years with iOS 16 update that now add push notifications so this a big news for html5 webpages

How can you consider Flutter being closer to Native than React Native? Regarding code sharing, you can share, logic UI and navigation code between web and mobile with RN now using Tamagui / Solito (or Expo Router) and good old React.

[@denoic]

Flutter is more to native because of their components. Material components are v3 and Cupertino/iOS are up to date too unlike Ionic and RN. RN is stuck in Material 1 and Ionic is stuck at material 2. You also have Platform Channel where you can send messages between the native code and the flutter layer.

[@AntonWester-n4s]

@@denoic Do you mean from a design point of view? Because flutter isn't actually rendering any native components right? It's just rendering something that looks like the native components. That is part of the reason that things like Input fields and Scrollview have been a bit problematic in Flutter from what I've heard. Saying something is more native because it has a newer design (something you can actually fix yourself quite easy) has extremely little to do with something actually being more native imo. In React Native you can actually render any native component from Android/iOS right but that's not really an option in Flutter from what I've heard? I know burnt has wrapped some native components on iOS at least (SPIndicator and SPAlert.) and there is nothing that stops you from doing the same with any native component in React Native right?

[@user-tf4cd2rw3t]

I‘m not so deep in this topic, but I read that Flutter apps are compiled to native machine code, resulting in potentially better performance and more predictable behavior. Maybe thats the reason? Or the fact that widgets are drawn directly on the canvas, which can make the user interface feel more native because it's not just a WebView or a JavaScript bridge?

[@glaze4629]

​@@user-tf4cd2rw3t The bridge in React Native is exactly the same thing Flutter developers call Platform Channels; Asynchonous serialized message communication between native platforms and C++ then to C++ and JS/Flutter, I'm amazed how people speaks of brigde performance when Flutter has literaly the same solution in place, when speaking of UI rendering, yes UI calls can be expensive if you're writing really bad react code, otherwise you'd not notice their impact at all. The bridge is currently a legacy feature as people are moving to the new rendering system that can perform optimizations on how RN draws it's components to your screen, not to mention communication is now fully synchronous with native modules, some libraries have had serious performance improvements due to this. In terms of performance RN compiles JS to bytecode in contrast to JIT compilation performed by V8 or JSC, Amazon is also contributing to create a version of Hermes (RN JS engine) that can compile to machine code, right now is a experimental feature. If I'm honest with you people really exagerate this performance topic, one can barely any difference among them.

[@prvtthd401]

To be fair, Xamarin and Flutter can build to desktop apps but its not the best at what they do. I wonder if we ever see a time where there is a true cross-platform framework that is able to support desktop, web and mobile platforms without penalty. Tauri sounded promising as they can build desktop apps and aim to support mobile apps. Too bad that it is a webview though and not truely native. Let's see.
