Reviewer scorecard
“New Architecture with Fabric renderer eliminates the old bridge bottleneck. Performance is now genuinely native-grade.”
“The code quality is surprisingly good — real shadcn components, not generic divs with inline styles. Saves me 2-3 hours per UI component.”
“The new architecture was worth the wait. React Native with Expo is the best cross-platform mobile development experience.”
“Does one thing extremely well: turning ideas into working UI. It won't replace a designer, but it eliminates the blank canvas problem.”
“React Native's new architecture and Expo's tooling make it the clear winner for cross-platform mobile development.”
“As a creator, I can now prototype landing pages in minutes instead of hours. The Figma-to-code flow is a game changer for my workflow.”
