Advantages

Conclusion

• The communication with external APIs is very fast and the render of that information is shown efficiently, so in this way provide a better experience to the users.
• As the components are native, the design of the views follows the principles of each platform to which customers are used to.
• Unlike hybrid applications we can observe completely native transitions in navigation and when returning in the history.
• It's possible to load a lot of data without degrading the performance of the app, for example loading a big list of elements with images using infinite scrolling.
• Changing the orientation of the device is completely fluid and the components adjust depending on the width of the device.
• Unlike hybrid apps there are no problems with the cursor when a field has the focus and the user is scrolling, and additionally the transition to open / close the keyboard is fluid.
• The keyboard is fully customizable (Modify the type of keyboard, the buttons that are shown, the text of the Ok button, etc.), which provides a better experience in the interaction of the clients with the application.
