Native Mobile Development Dieing Or What! by niel63(m): 8:26pm On Dec 06, 2023
My heading is very intentional to bring you in...

Now you're here... won't you agree with me about native apps and the future we are headed towards...
There's this shift happening in programming and how every language wants to support or run in major devices.

We all know how you can wake up tomorrow to build a macOs version of your app with flutter... why? Because flutter supported it.

And then, Apple Silicon happened, which is the new generation of macs. Now Macs run iOS apps.

Are we still native? Are we still building towards native or moving closely to hybrid systems.

Now at the time I thought this was just an Apple thing. They can do it because they make their own hardware. But then I realized that this isn’t just an Apple thing. All around us software is changing. And native apps are are doing Micheal Jacksons moonwalk. angry

Just sharing a thought about an article I read on Medium.

What do you think about these changes?

A lot is evolving around mobile development. Most programming languages are evolving to make the idea-to-market more easier and faster. But I can tell you for free native mobile development is not dieing but rather evolving.

Talk about Apple, with Swift(plus Swift UI) you can build an app that runs on all Apple Devices regardless of screen sizes. Android with Kotlin and Compose UI has also made native Android development faster and easier.

Major issue about cross platform development has always been the hardware differences, not the business logic which is usually the same across all platforms. And with these core native languages moving towards declarative UIs, there’s no limit to what is achievable.

People have usually bent towards Flutter and React Native for cross platform mobile development, but if you are following the trend you will know the time is coming where “the sweet and easy” swift and kotlin would surpass them.

If you’re learning mobile dev in 2024, just stick with SwiftUI and ComposeUI and you are good.

…My Opinion.
