I wonder how far you could get using something like https://github.com/carson-katri/SwiftWebUI to render the Swift app to a webview for the other platforms... I’ve not tried it, I imagine there might be jank and limitations as it’s “a toy project” but with some work could be a legit option - I’ve run pretty bespoke and complex React Native applications as desktop apps via react-native-web and Electron and it worked incredibly well.
I do like the idea of only maintaining a single codebase, but of course it comes with significant trade offs. The idea of building for Apple-first but automatically getting a reasonable fallback for other platforms is quite appealing - as you say, for many businesses it probably makes sense to focus on having the most polished iOS experience possible.
Honestly I’ve been quite impressed with the end results we’ve got from React Native, but you are always going to be lagging behind the native platform.
I'm simply observing the CPU usage of the Flutter app when a TextField gets the focus. I don't see why it matters whatever else may be going on.
I tried it on macOS as well as on the iOS simulator and on the web, but I haven't tried the latest version yet. You can try the web version here:
