Re:No, React Native is not the future

Flutter’s development experience is better than RN’s, and perhaps even better frameworks will come in time.
Hard to leverage JS devs when it's an entirely different language from JS.
The reality though is it doesn’t work well. The tooling, performance, debugging, library stability and observability are all substantially worse. Your team might save a ton of time spinning up a React Native app, but lose it all right back once you keep hitting gnarly Android performance issues.
In the future, once we have a proper cross platform development kit officially supported by Android and Apple, code sharing will be great. But today it doesn’t exist. And that’s why none of (the good) apps you use are written in a cross platform way.
