I worked with both React Native and Flutter. I would choose Flutter all the way. Coming from a C# development background, flutter feels like home. The power of OOP is just unmatched in languages like Dart, C# and the like.

I love how you read the stats and act amazed like it's your first time seeing them.

I think flutter is a great framework and interested people should definitely learn it in 2024, no doubt in that!

I'm developer using java programming language, but I'm more likely enjoying the development using the flutter.

Every thing was crystal clear by watching your video. Thank your creating such informative video.

Thanks for the video, I'm your long time follower, As a native Android developer who has also worked with Flutter and is currently focused on React Native, I've found that Flutter was relatively easy to learn. It introduced me to the concept of declarative UI, which in turn made it quicker for me to pick up Compose UI and React Native UI. From my experience, there's a decreasing demand for Native Android in service-based firms, with Flutter also following suit. However, working with React Native has been exciting, as it pushed me to learn JavaScript and TypeScript, which has sparked my interest in becoming a full-stack developer. Moving forward, I plan to leverage my native skills for KMP/CMP while also building on my React full-stack expertise.

After a year of working with Flutter, I can confidently say that the developer experience is fantastic! 🚀 While it might not completely replace native development, Flutter is perfect for kickstarting projects. Its fast development cycle makes it especially beginner-friendly and efficient!. Thanks for the amazing content 💯✅

Flutter is the first thing i leaned and it help alot in understanding coding in general how functions work how api calls can be made and using Firebase as Backend and to authenticate user it has been a great journey all together...

[lance]

I did a liquor store app 2 years ago for a customer with Flutter Firebase as a database and Cloud Google for Auth, I'm a backend developer, with Node.js, Java, and Python, but I can say Flutter it's a really great framework, and Dart language since it's a type language; it's like coding in Javascript, but with type language as Java, or Net, really nice language, and since then some minor updates, but well still working good.

Every 30 seconds, someone has been killing the flutter since 2017.

[yt_devcx]

Good effort put into your research and neat presentation!! Loved what you had to say 🎉

[venugopalreddy]

One Native + one Cross platform(RN/Flutter), you are sorted as mobile dev.

[AfsalMeerankutty]

Flutter is a good option for startups with limited budgets. However, large companies prioritize delivering top-tier products to their customers and don't compromise on quality to save costs.

[pidyondevelopment]

Flutter all the Learn Native too....many of those issues on github are not issues just questions...Flutter has best community so far

[kpsv]

My suggestion. If you are looking for more job openings learn react native patiently. Learning react native has advantage of learning reactjs which has good demand in web development. If you check number of people applying for react native is 100 to 200. But for flutter it is around 800 applications. So you can see the competition. Google is developing Kotlin multiplatform. So dont know how long flutter will survive.

Bottomline: if you want to become mobile developer learn android kotlin and jetpack compose and have secondary skill as flutter or react native. If you want to become hybrid developer learn react native first. This is my opinion.

[ЕгорДемидов-ыж]

Studied Flutter until I was faced with the possibility of choosing a specific platform. Damn, coroutines are something in Kotlin... In general, MVVM is easier to control in native solutions.

bhai mai tumare bahut video dekhta tha but abb busy rahta aur suddenly aaj yad aayi toh search kiya

[ZemenFidel]

Very helpful video, thanks. I do wanna add that app size matters because large apps are probably more often removed than smaller apps, to make space for new apps.... especially on phones with smaller storage space

[Anonymous-tpfs]

Interesting thing here to note is how cross platform frameworks would adapt the upcoming trend of AI apps the capabilities they offer, performance impact they hit running everything locally and how optimized way it can be done would be awesome thing to notice.
Any thoughts ?

[TennisReddy]

could you make a video on KMP as well, just like the recent videos on flutter and react-native
