Cross Platform
Cross Platform refers to the development approach of creating software applications that can run on multiple operating systems or hardware platforms with minimal or no modifications. It enables developers to write code once and deploy it across various environments, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. This concept is central to frameworks and tools designed to streamline multi-platform development.
Developers should learn and use cross-platform development to reduce development time and costs by maintaining a single codebase for multiple platforms, which is especially valuable for startups and projects with limited resources. It is ideal for applications like mobile apps, desktop software, and web services that need broad accessibility across different devices and operating systems, ensuring consistent user experiences.
