React Native doesn't use a bridge anymore. In its new architecture (which has been released last year), there is a concept of an intermediary called a "JSI" (JavaScript Interface) that allows the native layer to directly talk to the JS layer (running on the optimized JS engine Hermes) unlike the previous architecture where the Bridge in the middle sent data over the threads serialized as JSON. It also has Fabric (newer && faster renderer) and also turbo modules to load native modules on demand.

Basically, the higher up you go, you lose more performance and hardware access, but it gets easier

Kotlin multiplatform is also a really great thing, that has a lot of potential i think. I've tried it myself (I'm android dev). And I am very impressed with this. I also tried react native in the past and the performance was really horrible back then (although maybe they have improved it over these few years)

Flutter is mimicking the ui, not actually native.

Hey Lewis, love your videos. Could you make a video on the different people behind creating an app and what the process looks like? Both the people on the business and tech side.

[justinian.erdmier]

It's disappointing that you didn't mention MAUI.

There is also Compose Multiplatform, single codebase in Kotlin, Compose is great

Ionic is using capacitor now. Its got more access

[banylp]

Great video!! Could you make the video but for desktop gui

Lewis also: why you should not build mobile applications. 😅

An even higher level of abstraction for mobile apps is unity, but it's pretty limited outside of gamedev

I guess people who don't know c++ and java have to jump through a whole lot of hoops.

Uhh Kotlin apps can compile to ios via KMM remember?

[JuanGarcia-qdig]

For Android a Flutter is a good option, and for IOS, therapy would be ideal

[jeffreyepiscopo]

If you wanted to build an application that had a mobile app and a website, what backend would you use?

[CodeSnap]

ok i am a web developer and if i have to build app i will make it in react native it will hardly matter

[aravinthdaya]

flutter or react native which one should i go in the case of future jobs and salary

[hirick]

What about android studio? It supports java and kotlin

[HammondCoder]

That “AHHH” at the beginning was truly beautiful💀

Since Flutter builds to native code, I wonder if there’s a real argument for not picking it up and going to react or ionic instead. Especially Ionic lol
