This is an iOS only perspective, but it sounds like you are not actually looking too hard for iOS developers?.
No iOS developer considers Swift antiquated (because it isn't). I'd argue no one even considers UIKit antiquated (middle aged, maybe). Maybe with the exception of brand new iOS developers who has jumped on the SwiftUI-only bandwagon. SwiftUI itself is so new that it barely is production ready.
Sounds to me like you are actually looking for web developers who doesn't want to start learning native, but are OK to do the work in JS.
- gigel82 4y agoSorry, just realized most folks associate React Native with mobile. We target that too, but we're mostly targeting desktop platforms (via React Native Windows and React Native macOS) - and in our case antiquated really means antiquated (think old-school custom XML-based UI framework).
- wingerlang 4y agoI see, in that case I understand it more.
- tomduncalf 4y agoHow are you finding using RN on desktop? When I last looked into it (more than a year ago) RN Mac felt a bit lacking. There was no way to do drawing of custom paths (eg SVG) for example. Ended up using react-native-web in an Electron container to make a desktop version of an RN app, which worked surprisingly well.
