Can Flutter really be called "native", though? As I understand it, it operates like Swing: it draws all of its own widgets. They do their best to emulate the platform's widgets, but it's not using the native APIs for them.
- devxpy 8y agoYes, you are correct. I think Flutter means native in the sense that it runs at native speed, perhaps even faster in some carefully selected apps As for a look and feel thing, Flutter widgets feel alright to me..
- kkarakk 8y agoi'm seeing a lot of complaints on iOS flutter apps of how the UI looks(microstutters/not frame perfect). it's only the usual small vocal minority but boy do they kill your app's reception on the programmer heavy social media
- devxpy 8y agoCan you link a specific issue that wasn't immediately a result of a problem with the user code, perhaps too much work on the main thread? I have found the perf to be just fantastic on android. Especially compared to react native, which is a native offering.
