I get along with ReactNative, it's decent. The data-application part of my last android-app was already written in (JVM-)Kotlin and in the futures the UI will be as well. ;)
I recommend my styling library for React-native: https://github.com/tachyons-css/react-native-style-tachyons
In JavaScript for People Who Hate JavaScriptRegarding the margin and layout guides: You can use Tachyons.css on react-native to easily achiever proper layouts: https://github.com/tachyons-css/react-native-style-tachyons
In Going Mobile With React NativeI just logged in just to upvote this.
Tachyons is where you go when you finally want to be happy with CSS.
I ported it for react-native, so you can style mobile-apps with it as well: https://github.com/tachyons-css/react-native-style-tachyons
In Mini.css – Minimal, responsive, style-agnostic CSS frameworkAnother occasion to promote: http://tachyons.io/
Also available for react-native: https://github.com/tachyons-css/react-native-style-tachyons
I could write a long explanation on why I think tachyons is the final destination of CSS-frameworks, but I save myself the time. Just try it.
I don't believe there's a simpler or more maintainable (read: "better") way of handling CSS.
I use it for fresh web, electron/desktop and react-native projects since about two years, and I don't think I'll ever have to use something else again.

In Too Many Tools and Frameworks (2015)I use http://tachyons.io/ for everything and couldn't be happier. It gives you lots of singe-purpose classes that you mix and match.
And most importantly it gives you a REM-relative scale for your spaces: http://tachyons.io/docs/layout/spacing/ and for typography: http://tachyons.io/docs/typography/scale/.
So everything is responsive and I don't ever have to think about pixel-values again.
I even ported it for React Native: https://github.com/tachyons-css/react-native-style-tachyons
In Show HN: Mobi.css – A lightweight, flexible CSS framework that focuses on mobileI wrote a library, react-native-style-tachyons[0] (based on tachyons.css), which makes it easy to have at least consistent styling for react-native.
I think this is a good thing for shareable components, as they would have consistent spacing etc.
