Summary/Abstract: Cross-platform framework is becoming more and more popular. Many giant tech companies have their own offering with different programming languages. With so many choices, sometimes it is difficult for a start-up developer to choose which framework will they use for their project. Therefore, this research aims to give insight for start-up developers on which cross-platform framework is better between Flutter and React Native by comparing their performance. This research achieved its goal by creating two identical mobile applications using Flutter and React Native and then comparing their performance using a theoretical framework that measures load time, average frame rate, and memory usage. The result of this testing is that Flutter has a shorter load time at 1.69 second compared to React Native at 4.26 second and lower memory usage at 6.52MB compared to React Native at 27.6MB. Their average frame rate is very comparable hovering around 60 frames per second. With faster load time and lower memory usage Flutter has better performance wise compared to React Native.
