gazreese··on Best Practices for Mobile SDK Development – 17 Steps to Success
SDKs empower developers to seamlessly integrate various functionalities and services into their apps. From mapping providers to payment gateways, SDKs offer a simplified interface that streamlines development and enhances the developer experience.

This streamlined development process can be an often-overlooked key driver for adoption for tech startups and really help you get ahead of the competition.

gazreese··on Ask HN: What non-native technology would you use for mobile app in 2024?
I've had a very similar experience, and have worked on a lot of React Native and Flutter projects over the years.

React Native (Expo specifically) or Flutter can be a good choice depending on your requirements and experience. I wouldn't let Dart put you off though, it's a decent language and easy to learn.

I've got some articles about this here: https://foresightmobile.com/blog

Would be happy to chat, just drop me a message.

gazreese··on Identify any Android app built with Flutter
This is a fantastic resource!
gazreese··on Should we use flutter or React Native?
I think it's worth considering Flutter as a serious contender nowadays. There are some more details here from a Flutter perspective - https://foresightmobile.com/blog/why-consider-flutter-for-yo....

If you've got lots of solid React / JS experience in-house then you might have more luck with React Native (with Expo). Given a level playing field I'd be tempted to go the Flutter route really, especially if you want a more engaging UI.
