Flutter vs .NET MAUI

Use Flutter when you need to build cross-platform apps with high-performance, pixel-perfect UIs and want to share code across iOS, Android, web, and desktop meets pick maui when you're already a microsoft shop shipping one c# codebase across ios, android, windows, and mac catalyst and want first-party support plus visual studio tooling — that's its actual lane, not indie cross-platform speed. Here's our take.
