Proposing Technical Solutions in a Meeting
Manager: Allright team, let's dive into the requirements for our new mobile app project. We need to decide to on the tech stack and architecture, can you share your thoughts?
Sarah: Sure, I believe we should go with React Native for cross-platform development. It will allow us to write once and deploy on both IOS and Android, saving time and resources.
You: That's a great point, Sarah. However, I was thinking about Flutter as an alternative. Flutter offers more consistent UI across platforms and has better performance, especially for complex animations and graphics-heavy apps.
QA engineer: But how does it compare in terms of community support and third party libraries? React Native has been around longer and has a large ecosystem.
You: Absolutely valid concerns. Flutter is relatively newer but Google is heavily backing it, which means rapid improvements and growing community support. Plus, Flutter's Dart language is easier to learn compared to JavaScript used in React Natie.
Manager: Interesting points. what about the learning curve for our current team?
You: I have done some preliminary research, and while there might be a slight learning curve for Dart, many concepts are similar to what we already know from Java or Kotlin. Also, there are plenty of resources available oneline, including offical documentation and tutoirals.
Manager: Good insights, Any other considerations before we make a decision?
You: one more thing-Flutter's not reload feature significantly speeds up development and debugging. The could really help us iterate faster during the prototyping phase.
Colleague: That souds like a significant advantage. Let's continue the discussion later this week.
