Great to hear you're having a similar experience. It became extremely easy for web devs to release mobile apps now.

I did native app development on-off from about 2010-2018, with at larger apps. Today I see little reason to have 3 code bases with the same features. You got 3x the same problems. Ok, there's Flutter and React Native, but their web code transpilation isn't great. Web Views (both in browsers and in apps) are just a super major technology with excellent developer tooling such as live reloading. Capacitor would always be my first choice today.

Once in a while the Flutter/RN discussion shows up on Hackernews and I'd like to remind you all that Capacitor community is also alive and kicking.

For the past months I've been building an E-commerce with Capacitor/NextJS and its been quite a pleasant experience. If you're familiar with JS/TS and React, it's a great option for an e-commerce or a b2b SAAS app.

If you don't need many native components or a super slick performance, Capacitor might be the cheapest and quickest solution for web developers.

We are building our native app off from our web app, using Capacitor. One single codebase, 3 platforms targeted. Using very well established technologies that have a very good DX.
