Curtis Ricketts's review of Draftbit

“First let me say that I was a little nervous picking a platform and an architecture to build a new App with. By way of background, I’m the former head of Product for a $30 Billion public tech company--but now I’m off doing my own thing, and so I no longer have the luxury of a huge development staff. Now it’s just me, so it really mattered that I end up with the right platform and solution. I did a ton of research, and there were a lot of options, and a number of good ones, that included Flutter, SWIFT, React Native, and more, and literally hundreds of company solutions to choose from. I wanted to be able to deploy across multiple formats & platforms. As a non-coder, I needed something that both allowed for rapid development—not to produce not low-code corporate apps, but sophisticated Native-feel Consumer-grade Apps. Anytime you pick a new platform, development stack, or vendor, you’re taking a chance. I decided on React Native, and Draftbit, and I’ve got to tell you that I’ve been blown away with the product, the company, and the results. To me, I’m surprised that they aren’t the biggest thing out there. It is a Sweet system for building some incredible apps, and I would highly recommend. It really democratizes high-end app development. Like nothing else I’ve seen. And I’ve seen a lot.
