It means that a single code which is written on one platform can be used on multiple platforms. And with the increasing need for mobile apps and a variety of mobile platforms increases, app developers are facing challenges in providing their app in expendable form as their target users may be on very different platforms.
So in order to conserve effort and time, the ultimate goal is to develop multi-platform apps with code reuse. And to work on cross-platform mobile application development, you will be needing various best cross-platform frameworks for developing market-centric mobile apps that work on multiple platforms including iOS, Android, and other platforms, etc.
