> Fully native. Linear Mobile is built with native Swift and Kotlin code to guarantee a fast and fluid user experience.

how do they cope with the diverged code base? implement everything twice? and it seemed to me they use electron for desktop, then it means to implement the UI triple times?

this may sound strange, but i've decided to try and use Linear as a personal writing tool.

i used to use Notion, but the lack of offline mode, even after all these years, made me decide to look for alternatives.

i thought about obsidian, but there are wasn't a simple, free way to sync between desktop, ios, and android all at once; Google Docs also seemed like a possibility, but it doesn't seem to have markdown support on mobile (it does in the web)

so, since Linear has a comparable free tier to Notion, great offline, and apps on all platforms.... here goes nothing

Linear is so great: with the exception of the internal tasks tool at a former employer (which was also great) it’s the first task tool I actively enjoy using.

You need an issue tracker either way, even if it’s not awesome, but it’s a much better time to have it be one of the tools you actively appreciate.

Keep doing what you’re doing folks.

I’d be really curious to read a write-up on the technical details of integrating their sync engine with the two different mobile platforms. For someone following the local first landscape Linear is the poster child of a great app that leverages its benefits so understanding how it fits together when going native on mobile would be a compelling read.

I've been using the Linear Mobile beta from TestFlight for a few months, and I have to say, it's a really well-designed app, and the animations are just beautiful.

I don’t know what Linear is and I really don’t care that the mobile versions were written in Swift and Kotlin. I’m sure this is exciting news for existing users, but it isn’t doing anything to win me—someone who is unfamiliar with this product—over.
