Flutter vs React Native : which one is worth it, and why? 

so what do you recommend learning React Native or flutter? and how about job oportunities for both of them

@@Dev-Siri thank you so much Sir this is so helpful for me

@@keroloswahba1643 if ur a web dev trying to branch into mobile learn rn. If you want to be a mobile dev exclusively run the native languages. Flutter jobs don’t even come close open up any site.

Thx! 🇷🇺

Tbh this can also be a good thing. While I was experimenting with react, the moment I tried implementing something new into the code the way I thought it wanted to, it would start complaining.and no matter how much I would change it, it wouldnt like something newer about it While in flutter, no matter how strict it might be, at the end of the day, you can actually get it to work.

Glad to be of service, and thank you very much for your encouragements and sub they are very much appreciated!

I'm hesitant to use it for the Web because of SEO issues, but good for you if you're having fun and learning quickly:)

@@KodapsAcademy definitely not websites, but it's suitable for web apps

I'm glad it was helpful for you, thanks for the kind words :)

So, your colleague made a good decision then?

@@johnycache absolutely !

I'm glad it helped :)

How good is Flutterflow if you want to develop and deployable full-fletched social media platform ?

Thanks for you kind words :)

Thanks for your encouragement, these things take time it's just a question of patience and consistency :)

@@KodapsAcademy with this comment you just earned one more subscriber ✌️✌️

Thank you very much :)

Glad you liked it :)

I think TypeScript and Dart are more comparable.

If you look at the syntax for Widget composition in Flutter, it is actually closer to functional programming. However state uses a class based approach. That being said, I'm not sure the state issues React faced are directly transposable to a mobile environment.

There's also flutter hooks you can add in a package

If you have the basic in C or C++, Flutter is the best choice.

Thanks !! :)

Hi, I use a Neewer 660 led pane on one side and a basic led light on the other :)

Thanks, welcome aboard ;)

Glad you liked it :)

It is still being improved, yes :)

If you listen carefully, I state that there *used to be* a bridge which could in some cases performance problems. The JS VM can still cause issues in edge cases where you need high precision timing (such as mixing music tracks)

@@KodapsAcademy sorry I didn't heard that. But I also mentioned about the janky part of flutter animation after usage of a shader called metal in iOS.Suppose in future again ios chages some of it's internal architecture then may be there would be some more worst issues. And sorry, if my previous comment sounds rude...👍

@@bideshbanerjee5506 Flutter is working on Impeller, which will solve the iOS jank issues.

Go for it. Start building apps with it and you will know. No experience is waste.

If your goal is to build apps, keep going with what you have learnt. As Daniel Phil mentionned, it's best to start doing, to start getting stuck into practical issues. I shouldn't be saying this as a creator, but you learn more by doing than by watching videos. (feel free to watch videos for guidance if you ever get stuck, of course :D)

Neither Flutter nor React Native are particularly well suited for web as a primary use case. I’d head for NextJS or SvelteKit or Astro for a web use case :)

Glad to be of service :)

Thanks :)

For the camera app both will be fine. For Python I haven’t really used it for mobile dev, I think Kivy allows you to create mobile apps.

Thanks :) And truth be told I’m just starting out, I’ll get there in the long run :)

Thanks for your kind words!

Glad to be of service! ;)

I would recommend Solar 2D actually, it has a very easy learning curve :)

My pleasure :)

Can i have tips/advice from you? I'm learning flutter. and also im a first year college student.

@@_routier113 flutter course made by google on udemy by angela yu is the way to go to start

@@jorgecid5016 it is free?

@@_routier113 like 10 or 11 us, is definetely worth it

@@jorgecid5016 okay, thanks

Cool, that will give me the opportunity to make a new video :) although I already mentioned in the video that the bridge is no longer used, and that there may still be performance issues due the use of the JS VM (which doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere). But we shall see. Although RN actually started out more popular than flutter initially but lost ground, and seems to be following in some of Flutter’s architectural choices so I wouldn’t count Flutter out just yet ;)

@@KodapsAcademy Hey just kidding, I use Flutter too, for web I use svelte & backend rust. But I am amazed by the die hard react following, despite being the worst of all. People just follow blindly, very few use their head. So I just joke, I am a react fan.. it will beat all others...

@@MountainOf Can you please explain why you use Rust for the backend? I was considering FastAPI for mind but due to overlaps with SSR etc.. I feel like Node based framework goes along better with Svelte for web.

Is that c++ bridge version released?

@@MountainOf I don’t get it, you just confused the sht out of everyone

Thanks! ;)

Flutter is not quite as fast as native, since there is some overhead, but in the wide majority of cases it won't make a difference. And if you want to develop on both android and iOS, it has much faster overall development speed !

Admittedly an edge case (although that was kind of my point) I was once working on an app with a musician where I had to precisely cross fade & loop music tracks to the millisecond. I was able to do that in Flutter because the business logic was in the native layer. In React Native not so much.

@@KodapsAcademy If that is the major pain point you have, I would say to look into jsi where as you mentioned the architecture has changed and there is no need for a bridge. I am not a native developer but seeing what others are doing, I am pretty sure you can write native module with jsi that can be accessed on react native. The ending made it sound as if react native is the inferior of the two and the one you would be missing out on if you choose, where that is no where near that. Have you seen animations and gestures in react native using react-native-reaniamted and react-native-gesture-handler. The ease of creating them and the composability is unmatched even on web. Skia? Have you checked out react-native-skia? In react native you have native components but if you want to build performant, complex ui's you can use react-native-skia. Can flutter go the other way around? To use native components when you need them? Have you seen flutter's ios popup. It is a joke in terms of ui. You want to access native modules and stuff? Go ahead and use synchronous calls from javascript to native using jsi. Very much representative of web and invoking native c++ browser method. I am not sure if you are aware of the companies invested in react native. Just to name a few. Facebook(core team), Microsoft(react native desktop), Shopify(react native skia, FlashList), Coinbase, Tesla. If we want to talk performance and that flutter is more performant than react native then yeah sure. I dont disagree, but I like to give this analogy. Consder Flutter as a lamborghini and React Native as mercedes. Sure lambos are faster in speed, but mercedes are really quite fast too. You dont need the extra speed. The only reason am writing all this is because you made it sound as if react native is the playful one and not a heavy duty library but in reality it is. It is just that you lack the information.

My point was actually that React Native was easier / more established, i.e the « easy » choice, whereas Flutter is more involved and complex, not that RN is not a viable solution. I probably personally choose RN for about 90% of my use cases, just because I have team members using React JS and I know it will be way easier for them to transition. It’s just that as I try to stay as impartial as possible I might have a tendency to overcompensate… :)

Also that comment should be read in the light of my Angular/ReactJS video where the Google solution was initially the established solution and React the challenger, whereas here the roles are somewhat reversed.

@@KodapsAcademy all cool. Just wanted to clarify some things for the watchers when they want to consider either of the libraries 👍🏻 Have a good day

with spring boot as a backend what should i learn?

@@harshwardhanshetty4683 firebase

@@deathgod_69 that is not front end though

@@harshwardhanshetty4683 bruh you said backend

@@deathgod_69 spring boot as a backend I said, is something wrong?

Well, there is angular/localize provided by Angular, although I think you do need to run "ng add @angular/localize" .

Then perhaps this video might be of use : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mMUFPn8Mxn4.html :)

Neither will be dead. React will offer more opportunities. :)

@@KodapsAcademyWhich is Fresher High paying job React Native or Flutter.

And that's exactly how you told us you never learned JavaScript in depth

I'm not quite sure what you are referring to because it is possible to assign a function to a variable. See here for example : flutterhq.com/questions-and-answers/894/dart-assign-a-functionmethod-to-variable-after-declaration

Thanks for the kind words :)

I'm not sure I get the meaning of your comment :)

If you want to do (or have to do) web development too, learn React / React Native. There's nothing stopping you from learning Flutter at a later date if you want to expand your horizons laters.

@@KodapsAcademy but what if I want to build mobile apps just for me not to add to my diploma and I want the easiest way for that Is react native gonna be easy and not full of errors for me to make good apps or flutter?

@Islamputh if you’re naturally an organized person reactive should be fine. If you’re disorganized (like I am) you might be better off with Flutter’s structure. If you want to be productive quickly, you’ll be better off using React :)

@@KodapsAcademy u the best thanks alot

Glad to be of service @@Islamputh :)
