It sounds efficient, cost-saving, and fast. And that’s true… most of the time. But as someone close to this work, I’ve seen that it comes with its own set of challenges. And I don’t say that in a negative way. These challenges aren’t roadblocks—they’re learning moments. In fact, they often lead to better apps, stronger teams, and smarter ways of working. In this blog, I want to share a more balanced view: the real-life challenges developers face in cross-platform development, how we turn them into wins, and how our team has learned to grow through them. 1.
