React Native vs Flutter: Which Framework is Better in 2025?

Choosing the right framework can make or break your mobile app development project.

Image descriptionIn 2025, React Native and Flutter continue to be the top contenders, but which one should you pick? πŸ€”

Let’s break it down based on performance, UI, ecosystem, and developer experience!

⚑ 1. Performance: Speed & Efficiency Matter!

Flutter: Uses Dart and a high-performance rendering engine (Skia), making animations smooth and fluid (60fps).

React Native: Uses a bridge to communicate with native components, which can slow down performance. However, tools like Hermes Engine have improved speed significantly.
