#12React Native is far from dead. I suspect your conflating "React Native isn't good for Airbnb" with "React Native is dead". The reality is Airbnb already had mobile applications. They wanted to use React Native to potentially accelerate their application development. However, after a couple of years, they still had a hybrid application with both purely native screens and a some React Native screens. I think the number…
I am glad to read the comments saying that it is not dead, as I am planning to start building my latest project from the ground with React Native.
If you need or will need a web equivalent, you should look into react-native-web (and just for interest, react-native-dom but that is much more expiremental -- I'd stick with -web for actual usage). With react-native-web, you can have one code base that serves both the mobile devices and web. It takes a little bit of getting used to but I'm using it on two projects and it's really powerful.

Yes, I'm finishing a four-tab app with some tables and it works perfectly. Just don't touch Xamarin.Forms (it's still buggy and slow), use the bindings to the native frameworks instead. So far I have 65% code reuse with MvvmCross.

#14Go back to 2015 and use Ionic/Cordova/Angular? (Still a good framework imho to build apps).. or just build native if you have the time. I guess you also could try Flutter, seems to be the popular hyped framework of the moment, but I don't think react native is quite dead yet.
Ionic 3 is really good as well, provided you've drunk the Angular kool-aid, which I have.

#15I'd take a hard looks at Ionic! We built the early mobile apps for Shipt on Ionic and it worked out really well.
Best of luck!

Yeah no problem with Angular and ionic. I personally like Angular better than react, but Vue trumps both.

Thanks a lot! I will absolutely look into that. I will at some point need a web-equivalent, so that might be very useful.
