Somewhat relatedly, I'd be interested to hear if I'm crazy or if trying to use React Native for production quality iOS apps is really, really, soul-crushingly frustrating.

Who's happy with it? What's your app like?

I'm about to give up on computers. Fuckkkkk. Maybe 50% of that is just burnout.

Could you please elaborate on the difficulties you're facing? I'm about to begin a new project in React Native.

There are (IMO) serious issues with the devtools (Chrome inspector doesn't work at all), with both navigator implementations (the iOS one is unmaintained and buggy, the cross-platform one has bad animation performance and non-native look & feel), and with the list view (bug causing frequest erroneous clicks when just scrolling).
