mobile VS Browser

Currently I am learning golang. And I just thought why not create an Android app in GoLang... And luckly I stumbled upon this GitHub repo: https://github.com/golang/mobile - checked the docs but was not able to comprehend the terms: native, SDK apps, stuff...

If you use C#, Java, or Node.js for developing your backend, you may have to rewrite the same existing business logic in Dart on the Flutter frontend. The Go mobile project offers a way to call Go code from the platform-specific mobile development environments, i.e., Java and Android.

NDK is a fairly cursed thing dude, depending on your background I can suggest either looking at how golang interop is implemented (here or here), or going for flutter/dart ffi.

The other way is waaaay more complex, run a IPFS node directly on the android phone with their go-ipfs lib and making use of go mobile lib. Check this one https://github.com/cusspvz/react-native-ipfs

This part is one that I struggled the most with as the gomobile package is unstable and also lacks documentation and guides (as we all could have guessed that it's rarely used in a practical sense).

Very interesting, thank you! I didn't know this variant feature on erb files. It would only work after a request is made (and not if a window is resized for example) but it seems powerful. I'll try it for sure. I have used this browser gem in the past which helped me achieve something similar for specific cases, but this seems cleaner.

browser

- [browser](https://rubygems.org/gems/browser)

I’ve always used the browser gem to detect devices. It wirks really well, and it is still being maintained

I have not benchmarked them but if you're porting old code to Browser beware that sometimes its predicate methods return true, sometimes false, and, sometimes: nil.
