Treehouse Guest TeacherReact Native uses the native UI controls on each platform. Ionic/Cordova uses HTML views which can be less responsive.
Check out our React Basics course for more detail on React.

274 PointsAndrew Chalkley please read full comment and reply it is different what i wanted to ask and what you are telling me pleseee.., With react native can i make a mobile application that can run on any mobile os like android, iOS, windows etc and with electron I can make a application that can run on three desktop os that is windows, Linux, macos . so, does it means a full stack JavaScript developer is very versatile so why people code in native environment why people learn java and swift for android and iOS development, they can code once and use it anywhere. My last question please answer why people code in native platform when there are JavaScript libraries that makes it very eazy to write one and use anywhere.
