I have been experimenting with react native as I heard it’s one of the good ones, and so far it is not a particularly enjoyable experience. Lots of irritating things like no global styling, lots of ugly, hard to read properties on tags, etc

I’ve been building sites for decades and have never used a frontend framework, just html, css, JavaScript and sometimes jQuery.

I really recommend nativewind to solve pretty much every gripe I have with styling react native, if you still want to give it a chance. Expo for instant cross platform updates by just publishing updated JavaScript (no more publishing updatdes in app store and play store!) Also, yup and Formik for form validation and react query for API calls. With these minimal libraries react native becomes a beast.
I’m currently using expo it just doesn’t feel like a very well featured language and doesn’t seem maintainable
If I need to do data binding, some simple Vue.js. Otherwise, vanilla js or jQuery.
