React Native

Facebook creates this framework to help developers build mobile apps. Developers can build mobile apps with this frame using one language Javascript. Additionally, this framework lets you build cross-platform applications. 

React native offers design similar to React helping you build a top-notch  UI from declarative components. So as a result react native gives you the perks of a mobile app that works just like native apps. These use specific languages like Java for Androids and Objective-C for iPhones. Apps such as Airbnb, Skype, Tesla, and Amazon Prime, are the best examples of apps built with React native frameworks. A few key reasons for this framework’s popularity are:

1. Its integration with third-party plugins and tools 
2. You can reuse parts of the app
3. It’s easy to build the app’s look

According to research, 35% of software developers worldwide used React Native for their projects in 2023

Flutter

According to Google Flutter develops apps with a native-like experience while having control of apps through the UI toolkit. This framework can build amazing user interfaces for different platforms using just a single codebase. Furthermore, it features a collection of useful UI elements known as widgets and uses the Dart programming language. These frameworks give flexibility to the developers. In this way, they can tailor the app according to the needs of every project. Furthermore according to research on Statista, the usage of the fluter framework is around 9.4%.

One of the key benefits of this framework is it compiles apps to native machine codes resulting in amazing run-time performance. Lastly, it comes with a reloading feature, which enables them to view any change immediately made in the code. This feature allows them to debug or resolve any errors as spotted resulting in faster development.

Ionic

Inonic is also one of the most popular free and open-source frameworks in hybrid app development. It offers many tools which include HTML5, CSS, JS, and Sass for front-end and back-end.

Developers find this framework very easy to learn and use which helps them in the long run. With his frameworks, you can easily build progressive web apps with its rich library tools. It comes with more than 120 native device features which include Helathkit, Bluetooth, etc. Some examples of applications built using this framework are McDonald’s Turkiye, Justwatch, and Sworkit.

NativeScript

The native script was created by progress. It lets you build an app using languages like Javascript and any other language that could convert it into Javascript like typescript. These apps work smoothly with modern angular versions. With the Angular CLI, router support, and code generation it includes full-stack functionalities integration. Moreover, it integrates with Vue via a community-developed plugin that lets you use the Vue CLI, Vuex, and other nice Vue.js features.

But what would a hybrid application look like if built with a framework like native script? Well mobile apps developed with this framework are native apps. It uses the similar APIs just like their development was in Xcode or Android Studio. This means this application has a platform-native UI without WebViews and native performance. Lastly, Without the need for wrappers developers can incorporate third-party libraries from Android Arsenal, Cocoapods, Maven, and npm.js in their mobile apps

Kendo UI

Additionally, the key benefit is guaranteeing strict testing of each component. If you’re seeking an enterprise-grade solution with strong support, it is surely the best one.

Quasar

This framework lets developers write the code only one time and relies on Vue.js. They can deploy code simultaneously for websites (like SPAs, PWAs, SSR), mobile apps (iOS, Android), and desktop apps (via Electron). Quasar offers a modern UI following the Google material design front. It comes with advanced features while keeping the impact on performance low.

• Minify HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• Cache Busting
• Tree shaking
• Source mapping
• Code splitting and lazy loading
• Transpile ES6
• Lint Code
• Accessibility Features

Many developers love this framework because of its performance and features such as hot-reloading. One of the framework’s most known key benefits is its thorough documentation and active community.

Aurelia

This framework is a Javascript collection module. When used together it acts as a strong platform for building browsers, mobile apps, and desktops. Developers can use each of Aurelia’s modules independently in any JavaScript or Node.js project.

This framework comes in handy for creating efficient and powerful code. Additionally, it is according to developers preferring the use of vanilla JavaScript or TypeScript. It integrates with any framework/ library because it follows strict web standards.

The main sting features of Aurelia modules consist of metadata, binding, dependency injection templating, and routing. Its ecosystem comes with internationalization, plugin state management, validation, and tools like a CLI, Chrome debugger, and VS Code plugin.
