That may be true with desktop software, but I respectfully disagree when it 
comes to mobile.

There’s ever-growing fragmentation on Android, sometimes the developer must 
adapt to handset manufactures' & carriers' idiosyncratic variations of the 
OS/UI, form factors and unique features.
Then there are Apple's new and tempting backend solutions, like CloudKit, which 
provide a seamless experience for both users and developers. 
But they are clearly iOS only solutions. Leading to developer lock in.

IMO, the LiveCode is very nicely evolving to deal with this continuing 
differentiation of devices and OS ecosystems.
