Evaluating React Native and Progressive Web App development using ISO 25010

Abstract: The vast supply of different smartphone makes and models, along  with their  accompanying operating  systems,  increase the  demand  for  an  all-in-one  development  solution.   Quite a  few  approaches  to  solving  this  problem  have  cropped  up over the years, ranging from purely web-oriented solutions to something more akin to a native application.   React Native and Progressive Web App development are two different approaches,  both new and promising,  on this spectrum.   This thesis evaluates these approaches in a standardized way using the  ISO  25010 Product  Quality  Model to  gain  insight  into these  types  of  cross-platform  development  as  well  as  how well  such  an  evaluation  works  in  this  context.   The  results show that, while not a perfect fit, a standardized evaluation brings forward less obvious aspects of the development process and contributes with a helpful structure to the evaluation process.
