Currently, I am an Android Software Engineer, I want to improve my Android knowledge as much as possible and get iOS knowledge more than just a few tutorials. So I aspire to be a Mobile Software Engineer, that can efficiently develop natively on both platforms.

Cool and would do you think would be the most ideal tech stack for creating mobile apps in the future? Native like Kotlin and Swift. Or using something like Dart and Flutter?

I have tried Flutter, but I didn't have time to dive deeper into it. But in my opinion, native will always be the way to go at least in the next 3-5 years, because I have talked with a couple of senior mobile engineers who actually worked with cross-platform, React Native in particular, and they said it works fine in 90% of the time, and for the rest 10% you are losing a lot of time and resources and in some particular case, there might not even be a solution.
