Cross-platform development is a global trend in the mobile industry. The two major cross-platform technologies are React Native and Flutter. They help to reduce the time and money spent on development. Both of them have their own benefits and drawbacks and are used to create a number of applications.

Many companies prefer writing a cross-platform application instead of making two different apps with two different codebases. React Native is a good choice for this. It helps to reduce the time, money and effort usually spent on development.

The cross-platform applications are more cost-effective than native once. In their turn, native applications usually have better performance and design. Flutter in mobile development combines the benefits of both solutions. Still, it is not as popular as it might have been.
