In my opinion, Flutter is faster to write than React Native.
I also code in React.js, and I love it. But, I don't really like React Native. I tried a few times, but every time I had problems with NPM packages.

I also love the performance: Flutter doesn't use Javascript like React Native to interact with native components. Dart compiles to native machine code; there is no Javascript structure. So, performance is improved in comparison to React Native.

But, I can understand most of the React.js developers prefer using React Native because it's fast and easy to start when you know React.js.
