that fucked up moment when you create and Android Application in Android Studio for a startup and the CEO of that company asks will it work for iOS also ?... :-/

Startup and their budget issues :)

Of course: file > save as > iOS app...didn't you know? ;)

Ionic

hey guys, what's the best platform to develop mobile apps?

@tysa For Android: definitely Android Studio. iOS: don't know but others will surely have an opinion on this. You could also try Xamarin in Visual Studio, which allows you to create an iOS, Android and WinPhone app from 1 single C# code, though my experiences with Xamarin have not been pleasant, to say the least...it's a good idea, but not mature yet...

@tysa I always go with Android studio for Android.

Why yes, and while it is doing that, it'll solve world hunger, end wars and colonise mars

@Lukas thanks. xamarin sounds like a good idea to me because
1) I am used to vs
2) I like c#
3) it will ensure uniform experience across ios and android.

but I would have to look into it because sub par experience is unacceptable.

best platform to work on multi-platform app is ReactNative from Facebook. it's awesome

@rt4914 Is facebook's official app developed with react?

@mohammed not completely but yes they do use a lot of react native. they developed this language and used it for 2-3 years after that they announced it publicly.
