Does anyone have any data on platform distribution on React Native apps? (Warpcast would be a good candidate) I’m curious if the data backs the reasoning to build cross platform vs just sticking with one native platform like iOS or Web

it's not clear to me what type of data you're referring to, but I think the use cases are very narrow imo going full react native for everything could save you some development time, but I still believe that react native isn't on par with react for web it will get there sooner rather than later tho

Yeah I think I would agree. The key thing I was curious about is if I go through the trouble of building on React Native, are the rewards of having multiple platforms at once worth it? If the demographic for my app is 95% ios, why would I care about web and android? Does the platform demographic data backup the issues you might experience while building on a stack that is cross platform? In general I think iOS apps have a much smoother experience (Warpcast is giving that statement a run for its money, its good), as well as building on it vs making it work on all platform.

personally, I don't use react native for its cross platform features, I just like the mental model of react in fact, my side project apps will only be on iOS because I don't want to deal with Google as for the ux, after the new architecture, I would say react native is getting very close to a native feel
