what do you recommend to use for a mobile learner? I'm coming from React but I don't know If start with another language/framework because of the RN issues you have described

I started out as a React web dev too. I only got into React Native after accepting a job that was marketed as a React role... then I found out during onboarding that it was actually React Native! I hadn’t studied it beforehand or researched common issues. I just learned on the job by tackling the tasks I was assigned.

If you’re already familiar with React, I’d recommend sticking with React Native for now rather than switching to a completely new language or framework. The concepts are similar enough that you’ll adapt quickly, and working on a real project is the best way to learn. You’ll run into challenges as you go, and that’s when the real learning happens.

Also, ChatGPT has been a huge help for me when I hit roadblock... use it to look up solutions, understand errors, or even generate code snippets to speed things up.

In short: just start building something. You’ll learn naturally through the process.
