react-native-web-for-pwa-structural-antipattern
Using React Native + Expo compiled via react-native-web and Metro bundler as a PWA foundation adds 50+ Expo dependencies and a mobile-oriented build pipeline to a web-first product. This produces larger bundles, slower build times, and worse PWA integration than native web stacks (Next.js, Remix, SvelteKit). Any new PWA should start from a web-native framework; migrating an RN-web app to a real PWA requires a full rebuild.
