> In this world, if writing native apps gives a better experience and AI coding agents make it easy to implement what you want across all platforms, then you may as well write native.

[Matt](https://birchtree.me/) makes a similar argument to [my own](https://gurupanguji.com/blog/2026/11/06/discord-is-ditching-electron-and-its-new-app-uses-less-ram-the-verge/) that cross platform solutions serve(d) a different purpose. 

Using coding agents to deliver first class native apps is a worthwhile goal, especially if you are indie. 

p.s. I don't think it needs to be LIMITED to Indie developers, although problems with scale are still problems with scale.
