Native, because of two reasons:
- Without the target system, the application cannot be tested
thoroughly, and if one has the target system, why not build on it?
- Some dependencies (such as autogenerated code) need to be compiled
on the target system. It could probably be done on a linux system as
well, but same argument as above...
Projects are identical on both platforms though (except for a few ifdefs
to access OS-specific functionality).
