@shoop care to elaborate before I go into keyboard warrior mode?
Is it all native? Partly native?

React native has a native rendering runtime, that uses a "bridge" translation layer to translate JS instructions and react components to native UI. Similar to other technologies like nativescript.
Tl;Dr it has a jit transpiling runtime.
This differs from Cordova/similar backed apps which render the UI in a web view and provide hooks which allow js instructions to call for native functionality by proxy.
What only relying on JavaScript for HTML form input validation looks like

The things that make me wanna hate React Native is that the project folder becomes so BIG, makes it so hard to remove the whole project folder, including node_modules.
I really hate Dart but liking Flutter only because the project folder - along with the necessary code gets created pretty faster than React Native. On the other hand, React Native takes ages to load all the node_modules.
So, I'm asking the experts here, who have worked in both frameworks, should I leave RN and go for Flutter?
Cause, I don't wanna waste a handful of time every time just to create a RN project.
If I should stick with RN, please tell me a way so that I don't have to waste the time just to create a RN project.
Thanks
