Hey everyone! I've done quite a bit of research, but I'm looking for input from experienced programmers to ensure I'm heading in the right direction. My goal is to become a full stack cross-platform app developer and eventually transition into remote freelance work while also building my own apps. I'm aiming for a tech stack that is in high demand, offers good pay, and provides versatility, as I need to get my career rolling quickly. Currently, I'm focused on learning Python with Django, Java with React Native, and PostgreSQL. I've heard React Native is a faster and more versatile choice compared to Kotlin, although Kotlin seems to be more modern and favored by larger companies. Is that correct? My plan is to start with React and possibly dive into Kotlin in the future if needed. I just want to confirm I'm making the right decisions without wasting time on the wrong things.

It really depends on where you are! But generally speaking, React is widely in demand, and many companies look for developers who can use it. C# might be more popular in some areas, so it really varies. If you're aiming for remote work, React should serve you well as long as you're good at it!
Thanks for your feedback! Since I'm planning on working remotely, I hope React works out for me.
