Responding to an inquiry that I received by email. I have never personally had to switch an app from Cordova to React Native, should be straightforward but with some things to look out for.

  • react-native-sqlite-storage is supported by someone else; testing is needed to ensure it will see the same database that was stored by the Cordova app
  • React Native HTML WebView library does exist but I am not sure whether or not it can import the native React Native modules. Should not be too difficult for a React Native expert to fix if needed.
  • React Native seems to have non-standardized styling requirements that make it extremely hard if not impossible to adapt libraries and frameworks such as Semantic UI, Grommet.io, or other material design frameworks. I just raised this point in this comment: "What do you dislike about React Native?" June 2019 Edition react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals#134 (comment)
