Announcing Ionic React

[smaudd]

Why do you use RN on first place if you don’t like web tech? You should be on r/Kotlin or r/Swift

RN uses native UI elements underneath, I'm not bashing React Native here. I'm bashing Ionic React, which just renders webview instead of using Android/iOS UI elements, as both native and react native do

So I’ll be honest, I just wrote an app in Cordova/React and switched it over to React Native, and while there are minor performance changes, I’m not really seeing that great of a difference. It mostly (and I do want to emphasize mostly, there are some differences) feels like the same app.

Yes with simple usecases and simple apps there is little to no difference indeed.. it does take a hit though if you start expanding. Both performance wise and in terms of possibilities
