Cross-Platform Development

One component. Three platforms. One look-and-feel.

React Native and Flutter — compiled to iOS, Android and Web. Native performance, shared logic, platform-specific polish.

Plan a cross-platform app

Stack choice

Which framework, when?

We ship both frameworks in production. The choice follows the project — not the favourite tool. Here is how we decide.

React Native

JavaScript · 0.85 New Arch

Strengths

  • Huge JS ecosystem, shared logic with web possible
  • Hot reload and fast iteration
  • Native modules for platform-specific APIs

Trade-offs

  • Bridge layer can bottleneck (Old Arch)
  • High-frame-rate animations may need native code

Fit

When your web team contributes, or when existing React codebases should be reused.

Flutter

Dart · 3.x

Strengths

  • Own rendering engine — pixel-perfect UI on every platform
  • Consistent 60fps animations out of the box
  • Strong tooling for design systems

Trade-offs

  • Dart as an extra language in the stack
  • Larger app bundles than RN

Fit

When UI consistency and animation are the priority — branded consumer apps and tooling.

What we deliver

Three concrete delivery standards

Cross-platform is not a promise. We deliver on three hard bars — measured, documented, signed off.

Code sharing
80–95%
Share of logic that runs identically across platforms.
Cold start
< 1.8s
On mid-tier iPhone and Pixel — measured with the production bundle.
Bundle size
< 30MB
iOS .ipa and Android .aab after tree-shaking and asset optimisation.
