The AI Revolution Is Putting Flutter and React Native at Risk
This story was originally published on HackerNoon at: https://hackernoon.com/the-ai-revolution-is-putting-flutter-and-react-native-at-risk.
Cross-platform frameworks solved yesterday's problem. In the AI era, spec-first development with native code generation may be the smarter approach.

Cross-platform frameworks like Flutter exist because native development is expensive. But AI is changing that equation. According to Stack Overflow's 2025 survey, 84% of developers now use AI tools, with 51% using them daily. If AI can generate high-quality native Swift and Kotlin from specifications nearly as fast as you can write Flutter code, why accept the abstraction penalty? The future may be "spec-first" development: describe once, generate natively for each platform. The best cross-platform code might be no cross-platform code at all.
