Flutter?

  Can you do background services, notifications, etc stuff Beyond just ui
  • beckler 8y ago
    Yeah. You can even implement custom classes in Java/Kotlin and ObjC/Swift and interop them in dart.

      so this isn't really an alternative to RN right now. As for basic features you have to know native development.

        Which basic features require native development?
        • techsin101 8y ago
          background service notification sending intents "The other popular use-case for Intents is to call external components such as a Camera or File picker. For this, you would need to create a native platform integration (or use an existing plugin)." UI isn't everything for all the apps
          • slow_donkey 8y ago
            There are fluuter plugins (not third party) for notifications and intents. Background service can be tracked at this issue https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/3671 https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/3671

        Flutter is very much in beta still for the next couple months at least, so you'd expect that. If I was choosing between RN and Flutter as something to learn, assuming I had no prior experience in either, then Flutter is probably a better choice. I'm sure there are arguments both ways though, but Flutter is very 'solid' for lack of a better term.
