What do all those platforms have in common?Īll but one of those 5 platforms I listed above can run Chrome! That means that I have a very capable web runtime available on all but one of the platforms that my customers use. It seems they're frequently spouting off things that they've heard at conferences from what I can only call "the marketing department" for these various technologies. I feel like most people that throw this answer out have not actually done this themselves.

If you actually want to distribute and update software to all these platforms you still have to get approval everywhere, pay your developer fees, so you can sign your code, and set up a big complicated release process for pushing updates.

Flutter has a "alpha" support for Mac OS but not Windows.Īnd there's a giant gap in all these ideas: none of the problems outlined previously about distributing on multiple platforms goes away. So, I guess React Native can now mostly support all these. We'd ideally want to support the following platforms: So, now you're probably thinking: " Just use React Native, or Flutter, or Electron or some other meta platform!"īut that still doesn't solve it, for several reasons. But that doesn't mean it isn't a a lot more work. If you're like my big clients, maybe that's worthwhile.

If you really "go all in" on native, you have to build at least three different code bases instead of one. Ok, let's look a little closer, maybe it's not actually so bad? so just build native apps for that, or use Electron. We keep running into these limitations of what the browser can do. This happens both in my consulting work (currently with Walmart, previously at Starbucks), and in my business. More frequently, this is becoming "you need to do something that Apple doesn't think the web should be able to do" (or won't prioritize the work required to implement). That's what I'm trying to do! But sometimes, you need to do something that the web does not yet allow.

Cost effective and sustainable? Not really.

If you want to provide a link to download an electron app installer from your site and you don't want to have to coach your users how to click through the Windows warnings when they try to run the installer you have to do code signing. for each platform.Īnd most of these little steps and requirements are different for every platform you want to distribute to.
