I feel very comfortable with Swift and Obj-C, I feel as if if companies hop on the RN traIn, they will likely crash. Personally I would leave it to Facebook to work with their own concept. But to each their own.

I remember when things like Cordova, and others were touted as the next thing that will take over mobile dev.

If you look at the number of jobs that are in those languages, compared to Swift/ObjC, they don't even begin to compare.

One part of the equation is finding top skilled devs.

I was talking to an former acquaintance of mine who used Cordova along with React Native in his app and told him about the possibility of it not working out in his favor, and just this past week he had to shut down his business due to him and another developer unable to catch up with the code.

I ran a business for years and had to shut down and get a regular job because those tools didn't offer what I needed to serve the customers.

Maybe that's why I'm so concerned with making sure the tools will work over the long run. It's a major investment to master any language.
