Nowadays, Mostly flutter framework is used for cross-platform mobile application development.

This blog will help you to understand why choose flutter for the Cross-Platform App Development

Hi Olalekank,
I am a software engineer, will like to know if you have experience working on real time mobile applications with flutter?

Can we connect on WhatsApp or Skype I have a project that may interest you.
..

Olalekank:
I just want to point out some things here. As a flutter advocate, I might be a little bias with my arguement.

As for me, if you're to choose between a cross platform tool then flutter is your best bet. Asides the fact that flutter can and has been used in creating high quality apps targeted towards so many users, you can also build these apps in record time - for iOS and android.

Some might argue that there are some native functionalities that you cannot embed. However it's worthy to note that you can write native platform code in your flutter app, so if there's a functionality you can't get to implement in flutter, you can box in your java or swift code right there in your flutter app!

Another set of people say the apk size after build is quite high but I can assure that the apk sizes since its inception has been reducing considerably. An app I and my partner has been working on has over 36 pages and over 85 .dart files has about 30.5mb for apk size. I suppose is higher than that of RN and Xamarin but still not close to the native apps itself but with the flutter team continuously working on flutter, we should see even more greater reductions as we've seen as newer SDK versions are released.

Mehn, have you seen flutter animations?! You need to check that out, I'd probably spend a whole month immersing myself in it. You can create high quality animations in little time, real little time.

Here's where flutter kills java for native code, just like in web development, you can debug your android apps live, use a feature called hot reload and see your changes in LESS than 1 second. You just see yourself coding and coding and coding without knowing how many hours has gone. Kudos to google for that. Does it work that way in xamarin or RN or native java? Kindly help clarify.

Finally, there's an article which I'm too lazy to look for right now of how a CEO had to switch from ionic to flutter due to performance issues, the title of the medium article is "How flutter saved our startup". Hamilton music also used flutter to build an app (I'm not too sure what the app is about but you sure can expect a lot of users are using the app). Then google also uses it in its google admob. It has a lot of support already compared to "other cross platform" tools.

Flutter is not an hybrid app, head on to flutter.io to get started today, also refer to my first line opener once again.

I prefer staying away from cross-platform apps, they're unpredictable and harder to manage than pure os.
Thank you my brother....
Especially building the UI, layout and the responsive design. For example in the iOS
You will need to get window srceen and a lot of more stressful and complex activities you need implement.....

Am not saying that building a cross-platform application is bad or not ideal ...

Am saying with wot I have experience..

A native app is the software that has been created for a particular operating system, meets its requirements completely as well as utilizes SDK (software development kit) and hardware of a device. For example:
Swift and Objective-C are utilized for the iOS platform and Apple devices
Kotlin and Java are used for a project that operates on Android OS
Basic, C#, and XAML are employed by Windows Phone
Worth mentioning, the OS market is dominated by Android OS, followed by iOS.

Together, these platforms, make up the vast majority (98,92% by Statista) that are used for mobile devices and smartphones in 2019.
Logically, these apps, if built professionally, provide high performance, stability, and security. This approach has been chosen for digital projects such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Pokemon Go, and Google Maps.

What is Hybrid App Development

On the contrary, hybrid app development compared to native allows creating software that operates on multiple operating systems. These apps work across different devices. To put it even simpler, this is the same app that can be installed from Google Play and App Store.

hybrid apps use browser windows for its interface display. Mobile software solutions of Instagram, Skype are using a cross-platform development approach.
