 Flutter and React Native as are great for small apps that don't do much but work on both iOS and Android. Kotlin is great for native performance on Android with large apps that require some processing power.

 I don’t do app dev, but do you really need something as heavy / complex as React Native to build “small apps that don’t do much” ??

 LOL

I’m a data/analytics engineer, so it’s mostly Python & SQL for me, and a ton of dbt tempting in a data warehouse env.

I did start learning Go recently, and I know enough JS and HTML to build a really shitty website.

Everything I know about React is the exact opposite of “simple” or “lightweight” 😂.  But I don’t know much about React Native.
