framework comparison
LangGraph vs React Native
Both are credible choices. The decision comes down to which property your workload actually depends on, and neither vendor pays us to say otherwise.

Side by side
LangGraph
Graph-based orchestration for agent workflows with explicit state and checkpoints.
- Strongest at
- explicit control flow and resumable state, which is what complex agents actually need
- Trade-off
- meaningful overhead for simple single-step tasks that need no orchestration at all
- Vendor
- Open source
React Native
Cross-platform mobile from a single TypeScript codebase.
- Strongest at
- shared code with your web application and one team for both platforms
- Trade-off
- heavy native functionality still needs platform-specific work
- Vendor
- Open source
How we would actually choose
Choose LangGraph when explicit control flow and resumable state, which is what complex agents actually need is the property your workload depends on, and accept that meaningful overhead for simple single-step tasks that need no orchestration at all.
Choose React Native when shared code with your web application and one team for both platforms matters more, accepting that heavy native functionality still needs platform-specific work.
In practice most production systems we build use both, routed by task. Standardising on one option for tidiness usually costs more than the tidiness is worth.
Orqent Labs holds no reseller commission on LangGraph or React Native. We benchmark both on your workload and report what the numbers say.
Questions
LangGraph or React Native, which should we use?
Pick LangGraph when explicit control flow and resumable state, which is what complex agents actually need is what your workload depends on. Pick React Native when shared code with your web application and one team for both platforms matters more. Most production systems we build end up using both for different tasks rather than standardising on one.
What is the catch with LangGraph?
Meaningful overhead for simple single-step tasks that need no orchestration at all.
What is the catch with React Native?
Heavy native functionality still needs platform-specific work.
Do you have a preference?
Not a fixed one, and we hold no reseller commission on either. We benchmark both on your actual workload and recommend from the result, which occasionally means recommending neither.

Send us the workload. We will benchmark both and show you the numbers.
