Is Xamarin better than React Native?

The question is about Xamarin

Answer:

Whether Xamarin or React Native is better depends on the specific needs of the project and the developer’s familiarity with each framework. With the power of Microsoft behind it, Xamarin gives a base for C# and .NET, making it perfect for developers in the Microsoft ecosystem but also for cross-platform applications that have to deeply integrate into native APIs. Besides iOS and Android support, Xamarin supports Windows, too, and thus provides an edge for multi-platform applications beyond mobile. React Native, developed by Facebook, is powered by JavaScript. It is also friendly for novices and has enormous community support. React Native embraces a component-based architecture that allows the developer to quickly build and customize UIs out of ready components. React Native is favored in applications whose main platforms are iOS and Android, with a flexible and agile development cycle. However, in cases where the need for native-like performance is greater or closer integration with the platform-specific features becomes necessary, then maybe Xamarin will be more suitable for those kinds of projects.
