Right now I am a React Native Developer, and I want to be a back-end or full-stack developer, I mean RN is good but I feel myself in another stack, I hope I can do this shift early in my life, I am studying and learning every day a new thing.

What is it like developing mobile apps using React Native? Would you prefer to use native programming languages like Swift and Java/Kotlin instead?

Ok, after +2 years of experience using RN to develop mobile apps and working on multiple apps from different domains and with a different scale, I can tell you RN is a very reliable framework and RN team at Facebook is doing a great job making it more reliable and efficient to carry much larger scale projects.
The community behind it is amazing, and there are huge contributions from so many devs.
But I need to shift to back-end as it was my passion, I worked as RN developer as a temporary job and I knew that It will be hard to back to learn and continue my career as back-end dev, I know it seems a little bit a lost, but I am trying my best!
Thank you for giving me the time to say that :)
