> I am talking about full-scale replacements for Google’s entire Android development stack. Microsoft has Xamarin, Adobe has Cordova, Facebook has React Native, I mean it’s crazy town. [...] > It’s like everyone who’s ever tried to do Android programming gave up and declared: “This is so bad that I will do my own startup to make it better.” > And Google, not to be outdone by their competitors, responded by saying, “Oh yeah? Well you can’t compete with us, because we’re going to compete with us!” and they launched Flutter, which is — I am not making this up — a 100% serious Android development stack that competes with native Android, and whose existence the actual Android team simply refuses to acknowledge. This is incorrect. Every one of these I've heard of (all the big ones) and probably the rest don't exist because Android development is so terrible, they exist mostly to facilitate one codebase for both iOS and Android, or to allow the use of a different language. I mean, that's incredibly obvious, so I don't know why he's got this here.
