React Native or Flutter?


1.Flutter was harder to learn than React Native.

    Mainly because React Native uses JavaScript (which is a familiar language for me) whereas I was new to Dart – the language used by Flutter. So, if you are new to Dart and trying to learn Flutter, it will take more time than learning React Native. But the opposite is also true – if you have experience in Dart, then learning Flutter will be a walk in a park.

2.performance:=>

Flutter has the upper hand as it’s compiled to ARM or x86 native libraries, which makes it really fast. React Native isn’t compiled to native code, and it still has the JavaScript layer, making it less performant than Flutter. 

3.Bugs on React Native have also started to take a lot longer to get fixed. The dashed border issue, for one; as well as a separate issue supporting various build flavours etc. Most companies running React Native in production, run a custom fork to fix bugs that aren’t fixed upstream. The Flutter devs are more proactive, and you can expect fixes fast. We ended up spending most of our time looking for issues in React Native documentation, then figuring out why things weren’t working the way they should.

4.React Native components aren’t always customisable enough as they are just wrappers over native views. So, say someone decided not to wrap a certain method, then you won’t have access to it (for instance, dashed borders around a view don’t work) – while new components released by Google and Apple can take a long time to become available on React Native.

React Native CLI Vs Expo what to use?

React Native CLI  vs Expo :New React Native Apps. If you’ve decided that React Native is right for your project, this article is for you! We will be cover your options for bootstrapping your app, and the pros and cons for each option. There are two methods for initializing and developing your app: Expo, and the React Native CLI. Until recently there was a distinct third method, using Create React Native App (CRNA). CRNA has since been merged with the Expo project, and only continues to exist as a separate entity to provide backwards compatibility. Expo falls into the first category of tools, providing a more robust and developer friendly development workflow at the cost of some flexibility. Apps bootstrapped with Expo also have access to a slew of useful features provided by the Expo SDK, like  BarcodeScanner ,  MapView ,  ImagePicker , and so many more. Initializing an app with the React Native CLI, via the  react-native init  command provides flexibility ...
