About React Native

React Native combines the best parts of native development with React, a best-in-class JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Use a little—or a lot. You can use React Native today in your existing Android and iOS projects or you can create a whole new app from scratch. React primitives render to native platform UI, meaning your app uses the same native platform APIs other apps do. Many platforms, one React. Create platform-specific versions of components so a single codebase can share code across platforms. With React Native, one team can maintain two platforms and share a common technology—React. React Native lets you create truly native apps and doesn't compromise your users' experiences. It provides a core set of platform agnostic native components like View, Text, and Image that map directly to the platform’s native UI building blocks.

SwiftUI
SwiftUI
SwiftUI helps you build great-looking apps across all Apple platforms with the power of Swift — and surprisingly little code. You can bring even better experiences to everyone, on any Apple device, using just one set of tools and APIs. Build sophisticated animations with expanded animation support. Use phases to create sequences of animations, or create multiple animation tracks using keyframes. SwiftUI automatically transfers the velocity of a user gesture to your animations so your app feels fluid and natural. Share more of your SwiftUI code with your watchOS apps. Scroll vertical TabViews using the crown, match colors with adaptive background containers, take advantage of edge-to-edge displays with new ToolbarItem placements, and leverage NavigationSplitView to build detailed list views.

Svelte Native
Svelte Native
Svelte Native is a mobile application framework powered by Svelte, build mobile apps using the friendly web framework you already know. Build cross-platform, native iOS and Android apps without web views. Get truly native UI and performance while sharing skills and code with the web. Use the full power of Svelte including transitions, stores, and reactivity. One of the smoothest development experiences available for mobile. Svelte Native is a new approach to building mobile applications using NativeScript. Where other JavaScript mobile development frameworks like React Native and NativeScript-Vue do the bulk of their work on the mobile device, Svelte Native shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app. Instead of using techniques like virtual DOM diffing, Svelte writes code that surgically updates the native view widgets when the state of your app changes.

    "Makes smooth user interfaces."

    Posted 2023-08-29

    Pros: - React Native is one of the best and leading frameworks to create cross-platform applications with a single codebase.
    - If you are familiar with ReactJS it becomes easy to work on this framework as the core concepts aside from component names stay the same.
    - The building time is one of the lowest.
    - Hot refresh works like a charm.

    Cons: - There are little to no premade components, everything is bare bones so the user has to build upon it to achieve any user interface, it would have been great if the framework provided some premade components and allowed customization on top of it.

    Overall: Overall, React Native is one of the best frameworks to work with, the community is quite supportive and responsive. My experience has been quite good with it over the years.

    "Native app performance with a web framework "

    Posted 2022-07-24

    Pros: - provides close to native performance on mobile devices, but using JavaScript
    - build cross-platform apps from one codebase (iOS and Android)
    - hot reload and mobile emulation support
    - can be used with many tools from the React ecosystem
    - can build for web from the same codebase as mobile apps
    - free

    Cons: - poor documentation on advanced features
    - build pipeline configuration gets very complicated if you try to customize elements
    - difficult first time setup on larger apps
    - poorly supported despite Meta backing

    Overall: Overall, React Native is an exciting tool that provides close to native performance from web application code. However, many advanced features and integrations with popular react libraries are poorly supported. React Native, while a good tool, seems to receive second tier support from Meta.

    "Easiest framework to develop cross-platform mobile application."

    Posted 2022-02-06

    Pros: 1. React Native helps in developing cross-platform stable applications for both Android and iOS with single code base.
    2. It supports hot reload and hot restart, so the developer can see the changes in the application in real time.
    3. The community is overwhelmingly fast, so any developer can start learning the framework with ease.
    4. The application made on React Native gives performance close to native application made on Kotlin and Swift because of the native library used.

    Cons: 1. The debugging can be a problem initially, as the debugging is not as intuitive as other frameworks.

    Overall: Overall, React Native is a great framework to develop stable cross-platform application with single code base. There aren't many prerequisites to get started, and there is also a great community support behind it.
