  1.         React Native vs  Flutter – Which is  Better for Mobile  App Development?                                   

  2.       Unless you want to redevelop the same application, every year, or have unlimited                           funding, it is important to choose the right technology for your application                         development upfront. Obsolete technology will give you satisfaction at the time but                         you risk being limited if you want to make changes to your application. A                             technology that is too recent and used by a community of developers that is too                               small represents a risk in terms of maintenance and could force you into a forced                               marriage with your service provider.    So opt for a framework that is widely used and has a growing user community.    Native vs Hybrid Framework  First of all, a few definitions.    Native development is a specific development for each mobile OS (iOS, Android,                         Windows, etc.). Developing natively is like developing a specific application because                       the frameworks are not the same and require different skills. There will be little                             mutualization possible between these different frameworks. If you want to be able                         to develop an app available on iOS and Android, it will cost you roughly the price of                                   two apps.    Hybrid development allows a single development to serve different types of OS.                         Before 2015, this type of mobile development was quite deceptive from a                         performance point of view, and the design leeway allowed. Since 2015, new                         frameworks have allowed impressive results, largely meeting the expectations of                     even the most demanding. Even if only one code is developed, it uses the native                               functions of the devices, which gives a user experience very similar to that obtained                             with native development… but with a much more attractive economic model.    1 

  3.       Here is schematically what can guide your choice between native development and                         hybrid development:    ● You have a lot of time and a lot of money -> Native  ● You only want to develop an application for iOS or for Android -> Native  ● The application is very complex -> Native  ● You want an application available for iOS and Android -> Hybrid  ● You want rapid and affordable development solutions -> Hybrid    If your choice turns to hybrid development, then you will have to choose between                             different frameworks.        React vs Flutter  With the launch of its Flutter framework in 2018, Google is providing an interesting                             new alternative for the development of ​cross-platform mobile applications​.    2 

  4.       Having multiple platforms for which different applications need to be developed                       has been a problem for some time. In addition to having to maintain two teams, one                                 for Android and one for iOS, there is always a gap between the applications                             developed because they are created by totally different teams. This is what gave                           birth to the idea of ​​creating cross-platform mobile applications.     React Native and Flutter, both are designed for developing cross-platform                     applications. React Native and Flutter both deliver superior, fast, high-quality                     performance for apps on multiple platforms including Android, iOS.    Comparison  A quick comparison of the areas that are important for the adoption of new                             technology will give us the trends to come and allow us to get an idea of ​​where Flutter is.                                    Technology  React Native  Flutter  Programming  Javascript  Dart  language  Component  Smaller, not included  Very large inclusive  Library  library  Adaptive  Some are adaptive  Components are not  Components  automatically  adaptive.

  5.     Learning Curve  Easy to use, especially if you  Pretty quick  have used React or JS  Created by  Facebook  Google  Main  Flux and Redux  Block  Architecture  EcoSystem  Fairly mature, used in the  Not yet mature, fewer  production of many large  packages  enterprises around the world,  many packages are available  GitHub Stars  68690  37200  First Exit  Jan 2015  May 2017    Development  React Native  React Native uses Javascript as a programming language, usually used for the web,  but with a large developer community, especially at Facebook. The results obtained  with React Native are very satisfactory, however, it can happen to encounter  certain implementation problems. When we find ourselves faced with this kind of  functionality not achievable with React Native, we have to find workarounds. It may  be necessary to have native skills, to develop part of the React Native application  natively.  4 

  6.     Flutter  We have already seen in the previous parts that Flutter used Dart, which was not  invented for mobile applications either. However, it is Google that is behind it,  ensuring that Dart works with mobile platforms and does not suffer from any API  problems.    Performance  Cross-platform applications are not fully compatible with the hardware of the                       device, their performance is degraded compared to native applications. The reason                       for this is the JavaScript interpreter (“Bridge”) that exists between the React Native                           application layer and the hardware components. Every interaction with the device                       must go through this interpreter. The higher the number of interactions, the                         poorer the performance of the applications. React-Native is useful for simple apps,                         but not for apps with lots of complex screens, interactions, transitions, and                         animations.    So, let’s compare the performance of React Native and Flutter.    As explained earlier, Flutter does not need a gateway to interact with operating                           system components. Since Flutter can solve many problems using the Skia engine,                         this helps minimize the interactions required with the device hardware. In addition,                         Flutter uses C ++ in addition to the Dart programming language. The result of this is                                 to allow Flutter to offer performance equivalent to native applications.    Community/Maturity  React Native was launched in 2015. In 5 years, many popular mobile apps have been                               developed with the help of React Native – Facebook, Instagram, etc. (not entirely,                           only a few screens). Additionally, React Native has a much larger community than                           5 

  7.     Flutter. The developers have had the time to create various tools and libraries to                             automate and aid in the development of an application.  On Flutter’s side, immaturity is his biggest flaw. Unveiled to the developer                         community in 2017, it was announced operational for production only during 2018                         and has yet to expand its functional spectrum.    Developers around the world are just starting to get their hands on it, which doesn’t                               prevent it from already owning an impressive collection of tools and libraries.                         Unfortunately, many services still haven’t started supporting Flutter, including                   payment systems, software, and even Apple TV and Android TV systems. Many tools                           are under development.    Currently, React Native is the more mature of the two but Flutter is rapidly gaining                               popularity in app development like Alibaba is an example and more to come.    Trend  Since announcing the launch of its Beta, Flutter has seen strong adoption with                           developers around the world. Good indicators on the adoption of technology in the                           development environment include the number of contributions to an “Open                     Source” project, the number of questions about the technology on support forums                         such as “Stack Overflow” or still the trend within Google searches.    Conclusion  2018 was the year of the explosion of PWAs in the eyes of the general public. 2020                                   will surely be the year of the cross-platform app. Both frameworks have shown us                             that we can already count on it for simple applications. At the same time, you can                                 continue with your existing native Android / iOS apps and start building new                           6
