Native and cross-platform frameworks, build and release automation, crash reporting, and app distribution.
Mobile has its own toolchain because it has its own constraints: two platforms with different languages and conventions, a release that has to pass review, and users who may sit on an old version for months.
The first decision is native versus cross-platform, and the honest framing is what you're optimising. Native gives you the platform's own idioms, immediate access to new OS features, and two codebases to keep in step. Cross-platform frameworks remove most of that duplication and are entirely capable of shipping serious products; the cost arrives at the edges, where platform APIs diverge and you end up writing native modules anyway. The size and skills of the team usually decide this more sensibly than any benchmark.
The surrounding tooling matters more than newcomers expect. Signing, build automation, beta distribution, crash reporting and staged rollouts are the difference between shipping weekly and shipping when someone has a free afternoon. Store rules — particularly around in-app purchases and what a review will reject — are a product constraint, not an implementation detail, and they belong in planning rather than in the week you submit.
