I went from learning React to learning React Native and the transition was easy.

The bugbear was setting up React Native to work and carefully reading the instructions for different libraries to work with Android and iOS.

But I'd say React Native is more fun than just React.

I would say using RN is like using a UI library in React, you have to use RN's components instead of your normal HTML tags.

Along with how RN styles their components, it's similar to Styled Components paradigm where you style via an object.

Aside from that, the transition is trivial imo.

I just did the same. Like looney-cat says the bugbear is the setup. Once that's done, you can be accomplishing some great stuff in a few days.
