Flutter or React Native? How we decide for each client

We build with both frameworks every month, so we have no reason to take sides. What we do have is a decision checklist.

Choose React Native when

• Your team already writes React / TypeScript
• You want to share logic with a web app
• You rely on a large JavaScript ecosystem

Choose Flutter when

• Pixel-perfect custom UI and animation matter most
• You want identical rendering on every device
• You are starting fresh with no web codebase to share

And when neither fits, because you need heavy device integration or top-tier performance, native Swift and Kotlin are still the right answer.
