Android development is very frustrating

its an absolute fucking mess of horrors where the documentation provides SHIT.

It is bevause of this that I changed to React Native and later Flutter. Both are great options and I don't give a fuck about a performance penalty.

People thought that Kotlin would change something, yeah, you save keystrokes, but the underlying fault of android development is the obscene amount of architectural boilerplate one is left with.

Shake event handler in ios: fucking 5 lines of code at most.

Android: good luck fucker.

shit like that irritates me. I feel your pain man I really do.

i duno man. i am getting used to it. seems ok. but yeah ios is way easier.

As I came from Java background, Android seems REALLY EASY. not just for me, We have interns whom we first teach Android App Developmemt, even they love it. I like it because, A huge amount of libraries available in Java & Kotlin. If you wanna do something, chances that there is already something like that (library or app example) in github. Which is great. And Performance: Do I even need to explain it?

@Xoka totally agree with you because honestly I haven't experienced anything easier than building a native android app due to the large amount of open source libraries readily available for use. Maybe OP is talking about frameworks dunno.
