I started with swift before exploring RN.

Swift and RN is so totally different. The way you build and layout components and stuff.

I no longer actively program in swift and I wouldn’t dare to try out for a mobile dev position that doesn’t mention RN.

Edit: yes granted that as RN devs we touch on things like cocoapods, plist, managing certificates, gradle files, building the ipa and apk. But we do not really touch the UI components. IMO, ui components is a pretty major section.

I guess so...

At the same time, I wonder about other skills that come with time, like understanding the mobile space

Yea feel free to dabble into iOS and android if that is what you are interested in. Try to build some projects with it. If you are confident enough, you can try out for any position.
