How makers stay productive

For a blog, I'd say no. Depends on your scale though.

Use Twitter instead to engage your audience!

Nope, I don't think it's necessary!! What's the point, why are you considering it? If it's for push notifications, you can do that from the browser…

Since native apps have more control over phone, for example the accessibility. and yeah notifications too 😅

Just for people to read, a native app is too much. Also what more features are you going to provide to people with native apps?

Smooth transition of sidebar 😅

No-one's going to want to keep an app on their phone for one blog, and most traffic to blogs is through links not direct so you'd have to support a bunch of redirect stuff to get anyone to hit it. Definite no!

Hmm…

That's a valid point Jonny.

Would anyone download an app just to monitor your blog? A lot of work for something that doesnt provide much value to users… unless you live the most interesting life on this planet :)

You can get a smooth transition with sidebar using plain old CSS transitions?
