I absolutely love Apple SDKs. My first language was Objective-C, I won a scholarship to WWDC, and I started my career as an iOS dev. I firmly believe the best apps feel native to the OS, using platform primitives and human interface guidelines. But we need to stop it with the class wars. Apple's tooling has atrophied and practices have become hostile. Developers expect web-like iteration speed, and want to ship the same high-quality apps on multiple platforms with small teams. I love my toolchain. We use React Native because I feel like it allows our teams to ship the level of polish and quality I've come to expect from excellent mobile apps at a fraction of the effort. I might not have the same opinion in 6 months, and you don't have to agree, but I'm tired of the tool being the measure of the developer. Use the best tool for the job, build a great app and let your work speak for itself.
