In scenarios where a frontend software is needed to be developed and it needs to have support for various third party modules like customisable tables for showing data and calendar, button elements etc and when support is needed in debugging issues with the software, AngularJS is recommended as it is heavily used by a number of people.

We are implementing React Native framework for the development of the Front-End for the machine learning models maintenance and monitoring website. It provides meaningful error messages, and time-saving and robust tools make it a premium choice over other platforms. Moreover, it provides intelligent debugging tools and error report mechanisms. And most importantly for us, it provides the aesthetic minimal functionality to learn in order to implement it, thereby eliminating the need to work in Xcode or Android Studio for iOS or Android apps respectively.

  • Performance is still lower than native app development (Kotlin, Swift, etc.)
  • Not efficient design-wise (if you are planning to implement some advanced design, then you should reconsider the approach provided by React Native)
  • Issues with the update to the last release of React Native

Usability

It is a great framework to build softwares with support for its features and vast number of courses to understand, learn and when stuck, debug the issues faced while developing. Many free of cost modules and third party libraries which one can download and use along with some paid ones with great support and resources to help build using those libraries.

Decision for React Native came mainly from the big popularity of the framework. Thus, we had a big base of resources we could come back to. We also used it because it is a javascript framework. Thus, we could utilize the already existing experience in javascript and web development to ensure a smoother implementation of the app.
