What is Fues compared to other cross platform frameworks? it is very interesting, but I am a little confused about it.

@firasalmanna Hey Firas, thanks for the good question! I'd say that one of the primary differences is that Fuse has a cross-platform UI, layout, interaction and animation engine built in. As far as we know, we're the only ones that have that. As for other well-known frameworks where "cross-platform" is the main differentiators, check out the article Smashing Magazine wrote about Fuse (https://www.smashingmagazine.com...) as well as a piece we wrote ourselves a while back: https://medium.com/fuseblog/how-...

Hi @gloom303 interesting product you have there. I don’t consider myself a programmer although I know how to code a little (mainly javascript thanks to Google Sheets) so I look forward to see if Fuse can lower the difficulty and allow me to create an app by myself. One question: is Fuse also suitable for making web app or just iOS and Android? Thanks

@luis_martins Hi Luis — Fuse is only for creating iOS and Android apps, yes.

@gloom303 How does this stack up against Neonto Native Studio? What are the differentiators?

@mattproto Hey Matt! I actually don't know Neonto, so I can't say. Send me an email and I'll check it out and get back to you :) (I'm at my first name AT fusetools.com)

@gloom303 @mattproto In addition to Neonto, you may want to check out Creolabs.com.

@mattproto @dmerms Thanks for the tip — I believe Creo is only for Mac and only allows you to build iOS apps, so we're quite different in that regard. It looks as though they have built a nice drag-and-drop tool though, which is very rare. :)

I have seen a lot of code generators before. There were some differences and some common stuff. The thing that united them all - the code was sh... I mean awful . Maybe this one is different, who knows, I am not the person to find it out for hundred bucks a month. But A+ for an effort!

@ipstas Obviously I can't comment on what code generators you've used before (and yes, some of them do produce utter bullocks :) though I should point out a few things: Fuse isn't just a cross-compiler, it's a whole platform with animation and interaction built in. It's also free — it's just the Fuse Professional plan (that includes the visual Fuse Studio tooling and other elements for professionals, that we charge for). So if you'd like to check it out, I'd suggest to just download the regular Fuse (or the 30-day trial of Fuse Studio) and see if it's worth it for you in terms of what it can offer of convenience and production speed-up.

What Fuse Studio cannot do?

@aminadavg That's a pretty open-ended question — care to scope it down a little? :)

It seems like an awesome product but the price is just not reasonable. I was a bit blown away when I saw the pricing page.

@robertsozolins Hey Rob, and thanks for the comment — we do know we're on the higher end right now. There are a couple of reasons for that (which I covered here: https://www.producthunt.com/post...), and we are aware. As we are adding even more features to Fuse Studio (and as the included premium content in the Professional plan keeps expanding), we do feel it's justifiable for the target audience (which is freelancers, agencies, and enterprises who have a steady income and are interested in the benefits that the plan offers). For freelancers and occasional builders, the Fuse Free plan contains the same UX Markup language, the same desktop simulator (so you can build your cross-platform app without the need for Android Studio or Xcode), the same layout, interaction, UI and animation engine and it works with the same community and 3rd party packages. We went out of our way to make sure Fuse Free is not crippled or a step-down product for most developers and designers out there. I'd recommend giving the Professional plan a try (there's a 30-day free trial on www.fusetools.com/trial) and see if you really need the features included in it. We find that most people do not, and we're very comfortable with that. :)
