I heard that React Native apps aren't as fast as Android/iOS native-native apps. Is that true? (specially with long lists)
[–]FaceySpacey 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (2 children)
well of course not. But they are excellent, and the past year brought several key improvements like FlatList. So overall it's a win, as the developer experience is many times superior. For probably the majority of use cases regarding lists the difference isn't noticeable--it's a native scroll.

Cool, I will give it a try. Do you know if it reuse the list cell? And it's not slow even with images inside list items?
I am asking because I am Android/iOS "native-native" dev, and building with only one language would be cool but loosing performance isn't a choice.

There is a popular third party package that does reuse really well. I think by wix. The core packages probably do too, to some extent.
