so? most apps are by nature going to be computationally expensive if they want to compete/successfully use all phone features. i made a simple(according to them) corporate data sync app recently and the company wanted a laundry list of features - background sync, smooth scrolling of extremely large datasets, photographic analysis of images taken at tolls(extracting license plate information/classifying vehicles automatically for tracking).
All of this had to be made in a performant way so as to run on phones with 1 gig of ram as the company was giving phones to everyone specifically for just this purpose(and general communication ofc).However it also needed to work on iphones/windows phones(old ones the execs purchased en masse)
Xamarin was the only choice att as react just doesn't work stably on windows phones but i'm excited to see the future
- vonseel 7y agoYour app sounds like it used some advanced features, but I don’t think most apps are going to be computationally expensive in the way that local-AI, image processing, or crypto activities might be. I am not sure what qualifies as extremely large datasets, but I’d be surprised if keeping a few dozen objects in order is significantly lower in JS than Swift. Yes, it may be an order of magnitude slower - or ten orders - but that seems negligible if the total time for processing is still nanoseconds. Guess it always comes down to the task at hand.
