A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

/dev

I kinda want to just write Swift or Kotlin after the PWA, skipping React Native. Am I crazy?

I've done a bit of both iOS and Android dev so I'm not completely unfamiliar.

Not anytime soon though.

100% Swift for me. It’s a significantly better dev experience and I think the end product feels much better.

Came here to say the opposite for RN/Expo: (a) hot code reload; (b) OTA updates; (c) single code base for web + mobile [1]. Not having to work with xcode is a huge plus :)

OTA is definitely a huge plus for RN. I actually don’t mind xcode though.

Yeah OTA updates and not dealing with XCode are big pluses for React Native for sure.
