Flutter app development
Launched as recently as 2018, Flutter has already taken the tech world by storm. Google Ads, Xianyu, eBay Motors, Topline are just a few examples of successful apps built with Flutter. This programming language is trending among cross-platform developers as it offers better app performance, outstanding user interface, and scalability advantages.
React Native development
React Native has been used to build applications like Facebook, Instagram, Airbnb, Soundcloud, and the list goes on! Thanks to community support your product will receive timely updates and trustworthy management. Among other benefits of React Native we can single out complex features integration, smaller application size, and certain advantages for web app development.

Benefits of cross-platform app development for business
Lower development costs
The overall cost of an application depends on the amount of people involved in the development process. Cross-platform means one team and one codebase for many platforms – perfect for tighter budgets!
Faster time to market
Not having to write separate code for iOS and Android saves a lot of time. Both Flutter and Reach Native let developers test and fix bugs on the go, speeding the process up even further.
Wider audience
Cross-platform is perfect in case you are on a tight budget but want to reach both iOS and Android users. It lets you access both markets without investing in 2 separate native solutions.
Easy-to-maintain
Post-launch app maintenance tends to get tedious. Cross-platform makes things easier, since you have a single development team to cooperate with and a single code to search for bugs in.

Thanks to cross platform you no longer have to choose between different mobile operating systems when coding your app. Instead, it allows developers to use a universal language that can be exported to various environments (e.g. iOS and Android) simultaneously.
In the past, while working on a mobile application, the team had to decide whether it was worth it to invest in two separate native apps supported by different programming languages, or to settle just for one and, hence, lose some potential clients. As a result, while choosing cross-platform you ensure that your product reaches wider audiences, while also reducing the development costs and speeding up the app’s time to market.
First things first, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution or an ultimate winner in this ongoing battle between native and cross-platform advocates. Each has a wide list of pros and cons that must be taken into account before making a final decision.
The key difference is that native apps are developed exclusively for a specific platform with a compatible language. An Android-native application won’t function on iOS and vice versa. Cross-platform apps, in turn, are compatible with multiple platforms.
Choosing native app development over cross-platform or the other way around really comes down to a simple question: do your users prefer one operating system over another? If the answer is “yes” – go ahead and develop a native application for that specific platform. If, however, you expect your audience to be equally fond of iOS and Android – cross-platform might be the best option for you.
Yet, there are more reasons that could encourage you to opt in for a cross-platform application. Consider going for it, if:
- Your development budget is limited
- You wish to enter the market as soon as possible
- You are considering launching a web or a desktop version of your mobile app sometime in the future
If you’re still unsure and would like some guidance – feel free to reach out and our experts will be happy to help you choose the right solution for your project idea!
Flutter calls itself “Google’s portable UI toolkit for crafting beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase”. For users, it is a perfect solution that makes the most enchanting app ideas come to life on-screen. For developers, it is an easy-to-master framework that speeds up development and lowers costs.
Flutter supports cross-platform mobile applications, as well as interactive web and desktop apps. It is primarily focused on delivering highly customised designs, yet it also comes in handy when you want to create a pixel-perfect experience matching the Android & iOS design languages.
Flutter and React Native are the two most popular choices when it comes to cross-platform development. Let’s see what they share in common.
- Both React Native and Flutter are open-source, meaning they are now mainly community-driven
- Both are supported by worldwide-known brands, so you can be sure that they will keep on evolving
- Both are used for Android, iOS, and Web development with just one codebase
That’s where the similarities end. Here are some of the key differences between Flutter and React Native:
- React Native uses native Android and iOS components. Meanwhile, Flutter contains a whole UI rendering system built from scratch. The first one works well when you care about default mobile behaviours, while the second one is perfect for when your goal is custom and rich UI.
- React Native uses a mature and familiar Javascript (or Typescript), while Flutter runs on Google’s Dart, which is considered to be much more modern than Javascript.
- Flutter gives you great UI possibilities, however you might find a missing library or integration. On the other hand, React Native is much more mature, which means it provides numerous external libraries, navigation systems, testing tools, and widgets alongside the basic app development functions.
