Notable on the mobile app side that react native is getting tossed out along with electron.
It makes sense and I think they are going to be more teams moving in this direction.
Now that agents are good enough to one shot native UI from a Figma spec, these extra layers will be seen more as adding unnecessary complexity and ram bloat.
