Neither React nor Swift can create UIs alone.

  …they can?

    React is a set of JS APIs and tools that live on top of a an underlying model (the browser DOM, litho, etc.) Swift is a programming language. The comparison doesn't really make any sense.

      Well, yes, but this is a pedantic comment in relation to the post you were replying to.

        It wasn't meant to be. OP expressed a desire to "code apps directly in React" and avoid "React Native with its overhead." But that's meaningless: the React design is a layer on top of an underlying model, and that layering will always impose some overhead.
