Ask HN: Which platform? (Windows 8 vs iOS)
2 comments
Developing for iOS is really fun. I started learning 3 months back, bought an iMac and iPod touch. And since then, I am surprised everyday by everything it has to offer. Storyboard, Debugging, Submitting App. Everything is so beautifully designed.
Just one thing. The app store is really crowded, that too with quality apps. The apps which take lot of effort to make, someone else is offering for free. Unless you are developing for clients, its hard to survive.

EnyoJS, because it's cross-platform.
I'm having a difficult time deciding in which platform I should invest my spare time.
I have a little experience with the Microsoft stack as I have developed a fairly successful WP7 app. (~15,000 downloads) I have also been learning iOS and to my surprise I am actually really enjoying Obj-C.
I don't have any particular ideas in mind so it is not as if one platform is better suited. I just really enjoy developing and wish to get the most out of the experience.
What platform do you recommend to master and why?
Thanks in advanced for your insightful answers!
