I don't think anyone would argue that RN isn't the fastest way to land a multi-platform app on a really tight schedule. But as they get bigger (and want to get 'good') there's always the slow, inexorable move toward mostly native controls

no joke with SPM and like, 50 targets my work project takes 5-6 minutes to OPEN from a fresh git checkout (also every branch switch is another 3-4 minutes if I’m lucky and it doesn’t crash)

With Tuist caching (uses frameworks) the project actually opens in a normal amount of time now. I really wouldn’t wish the SPM Xcode integration on my worst enemy. It’s also wild that SPM on Windows/Linux has been actually running pretty well, which is honestly just another slap in the face lol
