2025: Why you should NOT use Kotlin
It’s been two years since our company decided we’ll pick Kotlin to create and maintain our Android App. This was the third-biggest mistake our now nearly-defunct company made in the last 8 years. We are about to rebuild our Android app in Java from scratch now…

The hip, shiny framework/project that everyone is going to jump to in 2025 has yet to be written.

Don't know much about nativescript, but picked up flutter 3 weeks back and am almost finished writing my first flutter app just coding during my free time. Feels great coding in it and seems well thought out. Just my 2 cents
I've heard great things about Flutter, and Flutter 2 sounds very interesting. However, I don't trust Google not to get bored and change directions, and so I won't invest my time until Flutter is strategically important to their business.

Well, as the ancient legend goes: Over 3 Billion devices do run Java

That's a good call, although if it becomes widely used outside of google, won't it be possible for a community to just fork it when google loses interest?
In my experience, projects like NativeScript are ideal for prototyping but they start to show their warts pretty quickly once you build anything more than that or a basic CRUD app.
I personally enjoyed NativeScript when I used it a couple of years ago but, then again, I really was only using it for building prototypes.
A bit orthogonal to the post but I find it somewhat funny that in trying to create the ultimate cross-platform UI SDK, Google ended up accidentally creating a rather decent (2D) game proto-framework/engine.
I wonder if we'll see any indie titles use it in the coming years. I certainly find it pleasant enough to play around with.
