The biggest problem with cross platform phone programming is simply that it is phone programming, and I can't get any of the goddamn OSes to quit molesting my app.
"Oh, you want to do work? Oh, no, that's not allowed as that might actually use the battery for something other than serving ads, and we just can't have that."
Yes, I want to do this work. Yes, I want to do it on a thread. Yes, I want it in the bloody background. No, I don't want it randomly shot out from under me.
That's hard enough with a native framework. Good luck doing that on any of the cross platform frameworks.
- satvikpendem 3y agoYes, that's always annoying. Cross platform frameworks just FFI into the native functions for keeping the app alive anyway, so it's functionally identical, that's actually one of the main things you can't fault cross vs native platforms for, in my experience.
