I was in the same boat a few years ago. I did some research on this topic and summarised here: https://sapandiwakar.in/a-review-of-mobile-development-frame...

sdiw | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: What HN post made you money?
I post links to my blog post from time to time. Although none of them made a buzz here in HN but a few of you have contacted me in the past looking at my posts/blog. I have worked as a contractor for some of them and it has been wonderful working with them. Not to mention, you get paid a lot as a contractor.
sdiw | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you guys keep your resumes updated?
Most of the time, you need ot add/edit your recent work experience. Rest of the things stay same (in general). Not hard to do that once in a while
Although, I update only when I apply for a new job.

What's the reasoning behind 75 paid vacation days?
sdiw | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: What are your non-tech hobbies?
I tried learning French too but then gave up. How are you keeping up with the learning?
sdiw | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: In your opinion, what sucks about StackOverflow
Not directly with StackOverflow but when I search for something, usually I meet with outdated results on google. For e.g. if I search for something on iOS/Android, I usually get results from 2011-13 which don't add any value because frameworks have been updated since then.

Hi,
For flexible contract dev work, are you open to hire from outside NA, particularly from India?
sdiw | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: Who is hiring? (May 2021)
Ok, thanks. Good luck with the search. Let me know if if changes!

FYI: when I try to design favicon with 'MM' it goes out of bound.

sdiw | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How Blog/side projects helped you land a job
I started writing blog 5-6 years ago. Initially, there was no tracktion. With time, as the content grew and a few of my posts got attention on HN and StackOverflow; I started getting requests from companies to work for them. A few of them were small gigs but I have been working with 2 companies as a freelancer since last 6 years.
A few of the posts were research based and therefore they wanted to know more about my insight. A few of them were tutorials and they wanted me to build something for them. Hope this helps. If you have any other question, send me an email. (in profile)

sdiw | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: What is your blog stack?
I've been using Ghost ever since I switched my blog from WordPress. I've been pretty happy with it and their editing experience is great. I host it on Digital Ocean.
sdiw | 5 years ago | on: Android Studio 4.0
Model-View-Intent, I guess.
sdiw | 5 years ago | on: [React Component Libs]MaterialUI vs Ant.D vs Fluent vs Semantic vs Grommet vs BP
Initially, we were also in favor of going with Ant.design. Everyone has different requirements but being able to provide customization was our important criterion to select a lib.
sdiw | 5 years ago | on: [React Component Libs]MaterialUI vs Ant.D vs Fluent vs Semantic vs Grommet vs BP
Thanks. Yes, that'd also be a neat way to compare the libs. I will try to see if I can put a demo.
sdiw | 5 years ago | on: Remote Employees Shouldn’t Be Paid Less Based on Geography
Yeah, I had GitLab on my mind when I wrote my comment. I do think it's unfair for a fully remote company but they have their reasons.
Its unfortunate developers with the same skill set can have a massive gap in salary because they live in different locations even though they bring same value to the company.
