If a person from 1700 asked you your job, would they understand your answer, and if not, how would you explain it to them?
  • They probably wouldn't understand what a software engineer is. I would explain to them that we have mechanical devices that are so complex that humans have to write instructions on how it behaves. That's probably not enough, but would be enough for them to ask clarifying questions.

  • Well that sucks
  • Texas needs to control people because they believe in small government. How else do you display freedom and amall government other than restricting rights and punishing people? /s

  • As a python developer, what language is the easiest and closest when it comes to building mobile apps?
  • These days, you have several options. You could use JavaScript/Typescript via React Native which builds both iOS and Android.

    You could use Kotlin Multi-Platform, builds both iOS and Android, vut I believe you will need to know some Kotlin for Android and Swift for iOS.

    You could use Flutter, which uses the Dart programming language, also builds both iOS and Android.

    Then there is MAUI using C#, builds both iOS and Android.

    Finally, you could resort to native for each platform.

    As you can see, there are plenty of options. Picking one comes down to what you need and which language works for you. Keep in mind, most of the languages aren't really close to Python.

    Good luck.
