React native is a fantastic project. I wonder if they could make it framework agnostic, so other js frameworks can use it directly

#32It should be noted that this is a wrapper around React Native.[1] I am a bit in doubt if one can use Vue Native knowing only Vue and never having to learn any React. [1]: https://github.com/GeekyAnts/vue-native-core says as much.
That's a dealbreaker for me. Not only you need to deal with quirks, bugs and feature-parity with lates OSes of Vue Native, now you also need to deal with the same for React Native. This is a bit too much for me, it's nice when it works but sucks when it stops to work and you spend the whole day to nail down some framework-specific issues.
Yeah and if you have spent any time in React Native you'll know it has lots of puzzling issues that creep up 3-4 months into development / maintenance of an app

#33is there any project that would us the same js - native bridge as react native, except with wasm. The idea would be to let us write cross-platform business level code in any language targeting wasm, while using a native UI framework
Not exactly the implementation you described but Kotlin Multiplatform is targeting this workflow. Shared business logic in Kotlin and Native UI on each platform. You can currently compile to iOS/Android/Web and Desktops. I imagine the could support wasm at some point too. Edit: Kotlin Multiplatform not Kotlin Native
I think you meant Kotlin Multiplatform: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/mpp-intro.html. Kotlin/Native is a LLVM-based backend which is used in case of Kotlin Multiplatform for iOS part.

#34I’ve been putting off switching my native apps to cross-platform simply because I’m too busy to learn react, so it’s great to see that vue is finally an option. Of course it’s probably a little too soon to completely switch live apps to this, at least until it stabilizes a little bit. Edit: never realized this existed for the past two years and is simply a wrapper for react native.. any reason it’s being posted now?
If your goal is to actually put out high-quality apps, do not switch away from doing them natively. No cross-platform kit can compete. You are making sacrifices, sometimes big ones, in order to get the cross-platformness.

#36I love functional concepts such as stateless systems, but young folks should acknowledge that two way event binding is something graphical desktop toolkits are doing since decades. For instance, Qt signal-slot mechanism https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/signalsandslots.html or https://libsigcplusplus.github.io/libsigcplusplus Furthermore, MVC is , when done correctly, a sane two way data-GUI binding. However, I have never seen…
The BFF pattern[1] may be more useful today to many, due to various types and sizes of devices and different sorts of integrations.
MVC can be used in its place, but it would often introduce unnecessary complexity, e.g. additional controllers.
MVC works for contextually equivalent interaction, which is still very useful, too.
Mostly just do what makes sense.
The challenge is, as it has been, how to be flexible, smart, and forward-looking, but developing quickly for what’s needed now.
But whether you’re coding a quick prototype or designing a large project (which is risky because a feedback loop from all users may be longer), focusing too much on the how and specifics instead of the overall experience may get you into trouble later.
For example, you could have what sounds ideal: microservices, individual teams each working on them focused on their own goals, powering a site with the latest, well-used JS framework, able to deploy quickly and developing quickly with a lot of fun-but-professional-looking communication, and end up with a slow, broken application.

#37What are the trade offs/Adventages to use cross platform tools for app development in 2021? The advantages of native iOS development, off top of my head: 1) Swift is very pleasant to use and it is fast. 2) The UI libraries that I need to learn: UIKit and SwiftUI. SwiftUI is also very pleasant to use and it is getting there. 3) No hoops to jump for integrating API that makes an App do things that WebApp cannot do. 4)…
Swift has the slowest compiler I have ever had the misfortune of using. The dev iteration cycle was unbearable for me in a Swift project the I inherited.

Hopefully one day we can get to where Visual Basic was in the 90's.
I keep vainly hoping for undo/redo, configurable keyboard shortcuts, cross-app files, app help, you know... the wins of the Windows 3.x 90s.
I'm honestly amazed some (especially undo!) were shrugged away so easily.

>but I think it's a fair question and I would like to know if I am missing out on something.
You asked why you would want to go cross-platform, and then listed a bunch of things you like about iOS development.
The fact that you aren't even sure what the Android tooling looks like answers your question, doesn't it?

> 5) Despite its bugs, Xcode is a good IDE that natively understand all the tooling I use. Autocomplete might break down sometimes but it can handle project creation, asset management, project configurations and the distribution.
This seems like you have very low standards for what is good.
