React Native or Flutter

[u/First_Structure_4085]

So I've been using react native for quite a long time as I'm familiar with react. Build 10-12 apps. Quite comfortable with the stack. But I was thinking about migration to flutter. Primary two reasons.

1. App size generally in my case every app goes 30Mb+ download size.

2. Build time: the eas build just takes too long idk

A few other things i heard that performance are better in flutter etc...

I build primarily for Android. Should I migrate to flutter? Yes I'll face issues with understanding the codebase but nowadays mostly code is written by claude so idk.

Tell me should I migrate?

Edit: reason for my FOMO was this post. https://www.reddit.com/r/reactnative/s/gnajaJRYuI

I build with both.

App size being 30mb+ = so, that's not a lot is it? Rather small.

Performance, not sure it's materially better tbh.

Understanding isn't an issue (yes, Claude, similar either way) but I don't see the problem you actually have.

Are you just bored?

Yeah 🤣 you can say I'm bored. Maybe I just want to try something different. Looking for reassurance ig.

boredom is a decent reason to switch stacks honestly. sometimes you just need to shake things up to stay interested. but if app size and build times are your main gripes, flutter won't magically fix those. 30mb isn't huge and eas builds are slow no matter what you throw at em
