You can see when JIT is disabled, the upcoming Static Hermes (Hermes V1) engine from Meta, built specifically for React Native, outperforms both V8 and JSCore on Apple Silicon

It'll be interesting to see how much it will affect React Native apps as it gets more and more optimized for this use case

React Native continues to be one of the best technology bets I’ve ever made.

At one point I really thought that Flutter would outclass it but typical Google project stuff has really put a damper on it from all I can see.

It’s not better than native apps, but as far as cross platform GuIs go it’s still very very good
