Ask HN: What's your favorite framework for making apps (with GUIs) for yourself?

4 pointsby rajlegoover 3 years ago
I want to start making apps for myself and want to prioritize speed of development.<p>I&#x27;m leaning towards xcode&#x2F;swift since I&#x27;d like to develop for mac&#x2F;iphone&#x2F;apple watch but it does seem like maybe not a great idea to be locked in eternally to apple. What do you guys prefer?

Even EloctronJS is more popular, I am using [NWJS](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nwjs.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nwjs.io&#x2F;</a>) because it is simple and support hiding code (compile code). However, I recently found a solution to hide code in the Electron app ([Bytenote](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;electronjs&#x2F;comments&#x2F;n155qh&#x2F;compile_your_js_code_new_bytenode_support_for&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;electronjs&#x2F;comments&#x2F;n155qh&#x2F;compile_...</a>))

I think it’s a dirty word around here, but Electron is popular for a reason..
