The problem with cross-platform frameworks, I'm told, is that they can never perfectly match the system widgets.

…is that a Flutter app?

If it was a Flutter app, the scroll bars would be consistent with each other.

Did you use screen.studio to capture this? Just wondering. I like these kinds of recordings.

Turns out macOS just has screen recording built-in these days, it's like Command-Shift-5 or something.

The challenge of cross-platform frameworks seems to be keeping up with system components and behaviors.

That's certainly something to contend with, but to be honest a much bigger challenge is dealing with platforms that lock features behind private APIs.

Those are system widgets, as SwiftUI is not a third-party framework. It’s an abstraction that either uses AppKit / UIKit views under the hood or some SwiftUI component that still ends up adopting to the platform it’s run on. This is in contrast to React, Flutter, etc.

If that was implemented in Flutter at least it would be self-consistent.

Mac and Windows are full of ui inconsistencies these days for no good reason
