Just like on the desktop, true native apps will always have their place on mobile. But for a very large majority of apps React Native will be more than good enough and much faster to work with.

Personally I've switched my focus from native iOS to React & React Native.

I don't think I could deal with losing Swift's type system and working in JavaScript, plus the whole Optional vs null issue.

I can't say I don't miss types, but if you use ESLint and FlowType it's not as bad as you might think. Hopefully I'll be able to start using Typescript on React projects soon.
