You don't hire for the tech stack though. Flutter has a much faster learning curve than RN, evidenced by its growing popularity among beginners. In my experience, it's not going to be hard for a React developer to pick up Dart or Flutter than it is the other way round - in fact, there are blog articles by eBay and BMW, where their tech teams easily learnt flutter and deployed production apps within a week.
Of course, most companies hiring mobile devs do it wrong. Flutter hasn't been around long enough the same way React has, so years of experience is a meaningless metric here.
- akmarinov 3y agoHave to disagree. Yes, every experienced dev can probably pick up any other language/framework and be able to work with it within 6 months - things aren’t fundamentally that different. But these people can easily switch jobs and it’s doubtful most are ok to hitch their wagon to Flutter - a nascent framework with basically no crossover to web development and a big company behind it, known for killing its toys on a whim. Much easier to just go do RN elsewhere.
