You asked a bunch of questions there, I will try to answer them separately. 1) I am a XN expert and have a ton of experience in it, and from my research, it’s extremely difficult to get an experienced xamarin native developer. Xamarin Native is amazing experience to have, but There’s literally NO WAY left for someone to train themselves in xamarin native and I wrote about that here https://blog.devgenius.io/usingxamarinuniversitytolearnmobiledevelopment-808b6dec3e8b?sk=1c196f32400196f14dff7359f8ee51c0 So yes, I highly recommend running away from using xamarin native apps. Companies are having such a hard time finding experienced devs at regular rates. So anything is better really. 2) As to what language to select, Cross Platform >> Swift/Kotlin, these are also specialized skills that are just as rare to find both of in one senior skilled developer. Microsoft is actually putting in a lot of effort into building out the new Maui platform which is a piece of cake for xamarin forms developers to learn. There’s several migration tools already built as well, and the advantage of using Xamarin for you would be that you can keep your ViewModel layer exactly the same, you just have to build your view layer (also pretty easy to do with hot reload). Finally, it is important to note that more than 50% of ALL new mobile app development is moving towards React Native. The ability to use typescript (TS) instead of JavaScript removed the biggest negative against RN. Also keep in mind there’s no easy way of migrating from Xamarin Native to Xamarin forms except for starting a Xamarin forms app from scratch because of This issue https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/issues/8153
