In that regard I think React Native has much better future than Dart/Flutter, specially with Microsoft backing it now, unless Fuchsia actually gets released.

Why is that? You mean that you're worried about Google calling quits on Flutter sometime soon?

Flutter is all about being the last opportunity to sell Dart, and I doubt that Chrome (PWAs) and Android (JetPack Composer) teams are that happy about its existence, given the political answers when questioned about Flutter on their own Q&A sessions.

I don't think purely about Dart, originally it seemed to be aimed as a technically more robust cross-platform competitor to React Native. Its implementation has good merit in that regard.

That said, it may well not survive nearly as long as RN will, time will tell.
