It looks like slowly native android development will be reserved for more advanced apps (apps that needs to do more than asking for API call to get and show the data).
Hmm I want to do some frontend (both web and mobile, maybe progressive web apps) but I hate Javascript.
Hard choice between #flutter or #dotnet#blazor (not really the same I know.)
Any advice ?
Since I made a new account here, its time for a new introduction.
I like writing and I am working on a book series, I love reading too, you can find more about that on my BoomWyrm account @peterkal.
I want to become an app developer, and I have started learning #flutter for a couple of months, I've also made a simple password generator that's available on #SnapStore, which I am pretty proud of, called 'Passie'.
I love constructive discussions and I am very into politics.
I am fascinated about the idea of Fediverse and i think it's design is more democratically-friendly.

When I was building Retro Browser, the biggest rule for me was to NOT use a web renderer (WebKit). That was the entire point.
I started making it with #GTK 4, and pretty quickly I ran into an issue: I couldn't render Markdown correctly. I could have done it where you can select one paragraph at a time and you couldn't select anything else. I could have done it where you get zero inline formatting. #Flutter would actually be better suited, but it still has a heavy renderer that doesn't fit GNOME.
I present the first named release of the Friendica mobile/desktop client: Relatica. It is still very much a work in progress but I'm going to start opening it up for beta usage (early beta). For iOS that will mean me letting up to 100 people into the inside testing team (Apple's limit). For the other platforms I'll be posting binaries/packages/install instructions for Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows in the coming days as well. I also setup a Relatica Matrix room for interactive discussions with me and other users. The README on the GitLab repo will have all those sorts of details.
