Native mobile app development has gone through an accelerated change in the last few years. Both Apple and Google launched new frameworks for building User Interfaces for iOS and Android respectively: SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose.
These aren’t just new tools. In contrast to the existing native frameworks, SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose have an entirely different approach to UI building, moving from imperative to declarative programming.
What does this mean for mobile developers and also for app founders? What are the benefits and drawbacks of this change? And most importantly, when is the right time to make the transition, and how to do it?
We'll learn more about this in today's session, diving into the mobile development world.
