The author, a long-time mobile developer, observes that the mobile development industry is experiencing a decline in job opportunities and overall prominence. This is evident from the author's LinkedIn search and a Reddit thread discussing the topic, as well as the StackOverflow developer survey, which shows a significant drop in the number of mobile development survey respondents.
The author notes that just a decade ago, mobile development was the "coolest technology," with every leading tech company vying to conquer both the iOS and Android platforms. This was followed by a period of intense competition between native and cross-platform development approaches, with technologies like Cordova, Xamarin, and Titanium being the buzzwords.
However, the current industry signals suggest a shift in focus, with the "AI train" being partly responsible for the declining prominence of mobile development. The author does not delve deeper into the specific reasons behind this shift, but it appears that the industry is moving towards emerging technologies and trends, leaving mobile development in a less prominent position.
