The post uses Apple's new iOS 26 'Liquid Glass' UI as a concrete example: Skip apps automatically inherit the new design because they use native frameworks, while Flutter explicitly declined to implement the new Cupertino design changes. Skip positions itself as 'dual-platform' rather than 'cross-platform' because it embraces each platform's native idioms rather than creating a lowest-common-denominator imitation. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
