Don't let #TechnicalDebt cripple your #SoftwareDevelopment efforts. Acknowledge it, manage it consciously, and build sustainable software in an #Agile friendly way.

See where three feature identical rudimentary apps are coded in #ionic, #react and #flutter then compared with each other in terms of #developers experience. I also talk about oauth2 and OIDC, BfFs, and native mobile vs cross platform tech stacks.
