Flutter apps on iOS feel way off

The value you get is using JS instead of that abomination called Dart

I used Gimp daily. I even liked it’s UX better than photoshop. Switched to Affinity Photo when they had macOS build problems :/

I used to use Unity for apps since it made perfect sense for simple game like apps

Titanium was worse
Re:Transition to React Native on Saturday May 15, 2021 @01:02PM (#27166927)
I want to write small review regarding replies on this link. I am working as an mobile engineer for more than 8 years now. I have worked on native iOS, Android, Xamarin, Unity, Titanium, Flutter and React Native. Long story short I have never been happier since I switched to React Native and Expo made everything so much better. I am not comparing it to native but I can compare it to Flutter.

First of all Flutter has major performance problems on iOS. Using native views (MapBox, ArcGIS) inside Flutter app has subpar performance. Flutter has weird styling compared to anything I have ever worked with. Styling in Flutter is very unintuitive (ex: Global theme for button width). You can’t OTA update Flutter code. Weird scroll behaviour. I can go on and on but personally I would never use Flutter ever

Most comments under the link:

React Native bad because Flutter good.

React Native bad because native good.

React Native bad because Y is good.

I made this a while ago. It is super simple and fast state manager for React Native and Expo https://github.com/4TWIGGERS/aniuta

You post made my day! Wish you all the best!
Re:Moderna's Covid vaccine shows nearly 95% protection on Monday November 16, 2020 @02:16PM (#25115770)
HN can hate me for this but I'm not taking novel not properly tested mRNA vaccine at least for another 5 years. If I remember correctly moderna's initial test vaccines caused serious liver damage in guinea pigs. If there will be classic vaccine I'm taking it
Re:Using Matrix to replace proprietary and centralized chat apps on Saturday November 14, 2020 @12:44PM (#25093946)
My company uses Matrix for internal collaboration. We use Element. It is quite good. Element is quite buggy tho.

I still don't get what is the maximum storage we can use, is it unlimited?

100% my experience. Everything feels backwards. Dart is huge turn off, there are too many widgets, non native views, horrible native view support. Flutter devs brag about how fast their apps are but honestly I have yet to find Flutter app which isn't sluggish

So happy to see that most HN users aren't pro censorship CCP bullshit. Thank you for your existence you are good people
Reddit went full commie since about 3 years. It became super annoying to get hundreds of down votes because you are not a leftist bot
Because Moderna covid-19 is a new type mRNS vaccine. God knows what harm can it do to people's DNA.
