⚡ Cross-Platform Development Frameworks

Cross-platform development frameworks enable developers to build applications from a single codebase that run across web, mobile, and desktop platforms.

They typically provide shared UI components, access to native device APIs, and unified tooling. Depending on the framework, they rely on a specific rendering approach, such as native rendering with platform UI components, custom rendering via framework-controlled drawing engines, or hybrid rendering where web-based interfaces run inside native application shells that embed a browser engine.
