One codebase for iOS and Android when building mobile app — big advantage. Flutter and React Native — most popular cross-platform frameworks. Let's compare both.
Flutter
Created by Google. Dart language. Skia engine — fast and beautiful UI.
- Advantages: High performance, beautiful Material and Cupertino widgets, fast hot reload, single codebase. Pixel-perfect design.
- Drawbacks: Need to learn Dart separately. App size larger (20+ MB).
- Who for: Beginners, design matters, performance matters.
React Native
By Meta (Facebook). JavaScript/TypeScript. Native components.
- Advantages: Fast to learn if you know JavaScript. Large community, many libraries. Web knowledge transfers. Expo — quick start.
- Drawbacks: Native code sometimes needed. Performance sometimes lower.
- Who for: Frontend/Web developers, already know JavaScript.
In 2026 market
In Uzbekistan both are in demand. Flutter — more for startups and new projects. React Native — for existing web teams.
Conclusion
Know JavaScript — React Native. Starting fresh or beautiful UI matters — Flutter. Both offer good career opportunities.
