It may be ”single language”… until you have to dive into the insides of a React Native library at which point you also have to know at least Java AND Objective-C. Add to that Windows-specific language(s) if your library will want to support Windows.
And let’s not even think about those cases when a feature is written with not all the platforms in mind. I once had to fix a bug where a developer did not have access to an iOS simulator to test their pull request… so they had merged it in without support for iOS.
- gloosx 4y agoI would say... In a smart company, you would enjoy learning some* ObjC and Java while working on a React Native app. It can be tough, but at the end of the day, we nerd hackers know Python and C and Java and bits of C# and objC. If you have to dive into Native internals, it can be a really fun journey if your boss tells you to explore and research it carefully, but it can be really confusing if you on a tight deadline. > developer did not have access to an iOS simulator to test their pull request This is clearly a company's fault, just get him iPhone and Mac if he delivers mobile apps LOL * and you really don't need much, unleast you need to implement a working WebRTC protocol from scratch, haha
