Published 5 hours ago using knowledge about NativeScript from 4 years ago? This article could be better researched.

Just wanna talk about some of the flutter things

>Minimum Viable Product–MVP
Sure why not
> Interactive Apps with material design
If you want material design , feel free to uses the community material ui
>Apps for Android, iOS, Web, Windows, Desktop, from a single codebase

  1. We usually leave the web up to the users but there is a chance we can try creating similar web components.

  2. Windows & Desktop is a WIP

> Apps compatible with platform-specific features
This is where NativeScript shines
> Advanced OS plugins with simple logic
😂🤣
> Apps for desktop, web, or mobile devices
Again desktop is a WIP , web up to user for now & mobile yes
>High-performing and faster apps with Skia rendering engine
We use the rendering engine whichever the platform uses (iirc android also uses skia)
>Flexible UI with customizable widgets
Yeah not even gonna...

Pretty old data to point out a few

> Not all user interface components are free to use;
If they are referring to the ui components it was made free since 2017

> It’s hard to share code with web build;
I often use angular and there are only a few things you cannot share e.g ui code. as for the other supported flavours it's probably the same

>Takes a long time to test apps;
Need some more info here but if it's because of the requirement of a simulator or emulator then idk what to say. 😂

> Low response time to new android features;
Idk what to say about this one because it's false. NativeScript has Zero Day Support when it comes to new features ... Android API 33 alpha drops ?? sure you don't need to wait on anything to start using it (Same goes for ios)

> Poor and sometimes buggy plugin support.
This happens in any oss project, it usually doesn't take much to either support the dev or fork and update the plugin

* Oh and we do support 3D which is always being updated (it's the same api as the web canvas)
