It's a pity both Jetpack and SwiftUI / Combine weren't available / release worthy enough at the time of writing. Not sure about Android but a lot of the problems on the native iOS side would be fixed with that. The only difference is the cell reuse, which can be a real head scratcher indeed for a starting developer. It's definitely a part where you will find the performance vs ease of use decisions of early iOS. Got to say I often work around it by creating new ViewControllers and adding/replacing them every time a cell gets (re)used but this might not always work in places where performance is still a constraint.
- jamil7 7y agoI love SwiftUI, rewrote my side project in it and hope it takes off. That being said I don't think it's anywhere near ready for mainstream use and therefore wouldn't be particuly helpful in a comparison like this. The requirement of iOS13 alone means it's a non-starter for a lot of business cases.
- dep_b 7y agoWell if iOS 13 adoption keeps growing like this I think any project released mid 2020 could use it - unless every % of missed users really means a lot of missed income.
