In recent years, the ways to make mobile applications have multiplied. The number of development tools to help us has also increased and it is difficult to make a choice.
Which IDEs are available ? 🤔
Currently, to do development we have the choice between Android Studio for native applications and Vscode for Flutter or React Native.
Android Studio
❌ Does not support React Native
❌ Consumes a lot of RAM and CPU.(like all google software 🤷🏿♀️)
✅ Easy Debugging
✅ Detects many programming errors
VsCode
❌ Does not support native applications ☠️
❌ No lint for native applications
✅ Lightweight and fast
✅ Everybody already uses it
Do we have a winner ? 🏆
The answer is YES. But it's not the one you think.
Since recently vscode supports native applications with intellisense etc... thanks to this extension. Even if the level of integration is not yet the same as android studio this is a great news because now it is POSSIBLE to use vscode to do native android development.
🧑🏿💻 Now it's up to you to code and make the future uber. 🚀

Nice article!
One correction though, AndroidStudio supports flutter via plugin. Am not sure about React native.
Glad to see that you like my article.
I checked and now the error is corrected.
