Native platforms vs. dev tools (@appcelerator)

Every time we start working on an environment, we are suckers for the “hey just use our write once, run anywhere tool!” (at Peek)

And our latest experience was a quick hit we wanted to do for Android.

We used Titanium. 17 Mb apk file. 3 months. Terrible performance.

So we bailed out and rewrote it native.

300 Kb apk. 2 months. Fast.

Titanium sucks! Sorry Appcelerator.
