Native or cross-platform: choosing how to build your app
Flutter and React Native have closed much of the gap with native apps. Here is how to decide which fits your product.
Cross-platform frameworks let one codebase run on Android and iOS, which usually means faster delivery and lower maintenance. Native development still makes sense for apps that push device hardware to its limits.
Questions to ask
- Do you need heavy use of device-specific features?
- How quickly do you need both platforms live?
- Who will maintain the app after launch?
For most business apps, cross-platform is a strong default.
