Flutter vs Native Technology: Choosing the Right Mobile App Development Technology

1

Kotlin

Apple's iOS and Google's Android are two popular mobile application platforms that make use of their own technologies for development. Some famous examples include Swift for iOS using Xcode or Java, and Kotlin with Android Studio. Cross-platform frameworks, such as Flutter, have recently gained popularity. This platform combines native Android and iOS performance in a single codebase.

CocoaPods

Flutter: Integration of unique features of third-party libraries or plugins is not difficult with Flutter, although it may appear sophisticated to developers unfamiliar with Dart's capabilities. Add-on plugins such as CocoaPods, Android Archive (AAR), and others are required to integrate specific functionalities for iOS and Android. However, the Flutter system has a maximum capacity for adding native modules using Android Studio's default Xcode. Its documentation includes step-by-step directions for overcoming these challenges and successfully integrating it with iOS and Android devices. It may lengthen the time to market, however this is generally disregarded due to the cost savings resulting from the usage of Flutter. It's also worth noting that Flutter currently supports all current iOS versions, including iOS 14, however it has its restrictions, and the functionality may change with each new update. The combination of Flutter and iOS 14 has not yet reached its full potential.
