    Is there a downloadable sample somewhere? Would like to see how large a native build is.

      Native build size depends on what you want in the app, like the app I'm currently working on is almost 300MB, but I've added a few custom extensions to it (charts, iroh, and more). Earliest APK I can find is 140MB. In this day and age I honestly wouldn't worry much about app size though given how much storage devices have.

        Are you serious?

        Do you think people buy more storage just for fun?

        I definitely don't buy it for devs to go YOLO

          I feel very lucky in that I bought a handful of SSDs mere months before the prices went insane. RAM, not so much, especially for my new laptop which demands DDR5. It may be a while before I can expand that past the 16GB that came with it.
