Genuine question: is there still a good reason to build CRUD type apps in Kotlin / Swift in 2022 with stuff like React Native and Flutter out there?
Not talking about award winning, unique apps that may require more device specific capabilities, rather the 90% of apps out there that just want to offer users an easier way to CRUD into a database.
Another genuine question: is there a good reason to use a closed source UI framework in 2022? Given the number of high quality, cross platform UI frameworks available today this should be a consideration.
Inevitably, while developing a UI, I find it necessary to investigate some part of the framework implementation. This is impossible with a closed source framework. Indeed, many of the complaints that appear on this site seem like exactly the sort of mysterious behavior one faces and might be resolved with access to the source.
SwiftUI is closed source, correct? I made an effort to discover the source and it doesn't appear to be available.
For CRUD stuff we do regular Web applications, naturally with the necessary optimizations for mobile Web, in the process you can also make use of PWA features for mobile devices.
