For Hybrid Apps
07-03-2024 • Written By Anandhu Remanan (Co-Founder Nada Labs)

Because hybrid apps may cut costs and streamline development processes easier, they are becoming more and more common in software development. They present a strong substitute for native development (even though native apps have it's own advantages), especially for applications that don't need speed optimisation or highly specialised native capabilities. Web and native development strengths are combined in hybrid applications development. They function and execute similarly to native apps because they have access to native device capabilities and APIs.Simultaneously, they gain from web technologies' flexibility and ease of development, which enable quick prototyping and cross-platform interoperability.

At Nada Labs, we use Rust (Tauri), React, and React Native to create hybrid applications. Using React Native and Tauri to build hybrid applications combines the finest features of both technologies: Tauri's native desktop application packaging and React Native's UI efficiency and performance.

You can create a single codebase with React Native that works on both iOS and Android, sharing a large amount of your code between the two platforms. However, Tauri enables you to package your React Native application as a stand-alone desktop program, giving you access toto more seamless user experiences and native system functionalities. To get started, you would normally use React Native to design your application and make sure it functions properly on mobile platforms. When your program is prepared, you can package it as a desktop application by integrating Tauri. Tauri offers settings and features to let you to personalise the packaging process to suit your requirements. Some of these include customising app icons, managing updates, and handling permissions.

You may build strong hybrid applications with the freedom of web technologies and the native capabilities of desktop applications by utilising both React Native and Tauri which will make this stack a perfect choice and end of the day it's all depends on the needs of each project.
