Mobile App Architecture: How to Conquer the Giant!
summary
Decision tree called the Mad Tree helps pick native, crossplatform compiled, hybrid or mobile‑web by answering concrete constraints: target ages 27–47, global vs US market, must‑work offline, support iOS and Android (testing down to seven OS versions behind). Example stack choices include Swift/Xcode or Kotlin/Android Studio for native, React Native (TypeScript), Flutter (Dart) or MAUI (formerly Xamarin) for crossplatform, or Ionic/PhoneGap for hybrid. Built a .NET backend fintech game that pulls from Plaid data aggregator, runs a small on‑device LLM, caches locally with no heavy syncing, and uses TestFlight/Play console plus Bitrise/Sauce Labs for CI and testing.
