No kidding I think it had like 4 updates yesterday 🀣

This. I pressed update on my Android, iPhone, and Desktop and it only took like half a second. This PWA is scary good.

I thought pwa were supposed to suck but I honestly haven't even looked at any other apps because wefef works so well

[–] techgearwhips@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The first time I found out PWA don't suck is when I tried justchilltv last month. Another dope one

Just looked that up and now I'm debating cancelling all of my streaming subscriptions.

I don't know what that is but anything that requires me to log into an account before telling me absolutely anything about the service is an instant no from me.

I thinks it's fair considering is pirating, many services get shutdown for showing everything without login. It let them know you are in their discord server

This is what blows my mind. PWAs have always been sort of ok. But wefwef is just <chef’s kiss.gif>

that's something i like with react native and over the air updates. In the app i ship at my job, when its only the javascript bundle that's updated we can actually update without the user ever knowing, they just get a slightly longer load time on that startup of the app, making rather easy ensuring that no users are running out of date and broken code.

Good to know. I haven't decided whether I want to learn RN, Flutter, or ionic. Lemaing towards RN.

[–] pixxel@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think for now that there are more jobs in RN, but a lot of people are passionate about flutter and we might as a shift in the market in the next comings year.

I would do freelancing and building my own apps so where the market goes makes me no difference. What's really important to me is which is the better language to learn. And I've seen arguments for both sides.

[–] StrongGoal2001@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's no "better language". Just languages for different use cases. You don't have to "trust" what other have to say, just try it

[–] techgearwhips@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I know there is no better language, but I meant technically for myself and what I require. I am going to learn one but I'm doing my due diligence in research before I jump in head first.
