I just want to write Svelte and get native apps out the other end. I know we have SvelteNative but that's not great and is a big abstraction. React here is a bit of a bummer i'm not going to lie.

This sounds like the inevitable slow death of RN to me. Web developers simply moving on to new tech that's better/more common on the web while RN languishes as the massive set of open source libraries required are abandoned

Don't confuse HN bleeding edge hipser tech with the real world. The world of react-alternatives is fragmented and lib-incomplete, React still gets more installed than its most popular rivals combined[1].

I have worked across these frameworks and React is the only one where I find the lib ecosystem satisfiyingly large (and still growing most steadily).

I guess you can use any general "native wrapper over JS/HTML" like https://capacitorjs.com/solution/svelte

Why go through that many hoops just to use Svelte over React? They’re so similar, just go with the one with the best bindings to the native platform

I don’t agree they are “so similar”
