Ask HN: One Single Framework for Developing Mobile, Web and Desktop App?
3 points by ravirajx7 1517 days ago
Considering the amount of expertise each of the framework requires for developing applications, it becomes cumbersome & time consuming to learn many. Is there any single framework out there which can do all the things? We have separate framework for developing application depending on the platform. Something using which one can develop code for all platform - Microservices are good & it's completely ok to build separate microservices too for each platform but is there any single framework which does all of it and have library for the same?

We've recently started using Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile but the docs describe using it across mobile and web (which I assume means you can also package it as an electron app).

However, everything in Kotlin Multiplatform isn't designed to be cross-platform. It gives you the ability to structure your shared business logic to work across platforms, but you build a native UI for each target.

This has it's benefits long-term wrt creating polished native apps, but is more time consuming for a start-up.

Check out Flutter, it is a cross platform framework compiles to native code.
Web? Web for web, a web view on mobile, and electron on desktop.
React Native + React Native Web

Bonus: Node.js on server
