## What it is
Small is a lightweight cross-platform plugin framework that splits a mobile app into small, independently loadable components on Android and iOS. It supports dynamic loading of plugins and hotfixes without releasing a new app version.

## Use cases
- split a large android app into modular plugins
- dynamically load features in an ios app without app store release
- ship hotfixes to a mobile app without republishing
- implement component-based architecture for mobile apps
- load business modules on demand to reduce app size

## When to choose
- you need cross-platform pluginization for both android and ios
- you want lightweight dynamic module loading with hotfix support

## When to avoid
- you target only modern android with official dynamic feature delivery
- you need an actively developed framework - updates are infrequent
- ios app store policies disallow loading downloaded native code

## Facets
- artifact type: framework

- function: plugin-system, mobile-framework
- domain: mobile-development, cross-platform, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
