Chuckled at this. But honestly I find debugging the “native” side of RN apps much more painful than any type of web development I’ve had experience with. Then again perhaps I’ve never worked with a 100% pure native app so would love to hear some more perspectives on this.

IDK what you mean but there so many things much easier and straightforward with web-based tech, eg sane layout systems like flexbox are way superior than anything native frameworks have to offer.
