Hello guys I have an idea about building a mobile app for android and ios.
I want to say that I only have experience building web applications with vue.js and laravel (php) but I know it won’t be hard to adapt to a new system.
I have made some research and I see that one of the best ways is to use react native as the frontent since it will allow me to use the same code for both operating systems.
About the backend I have some questions, should I use laravel to make the api point, or can you suggest what is best for this situation, maybe django or something else ?
If you already have experience with PHP and Laravel, then that should be just fine for your API. If you already have to learn a new stack with mobile app development in React Native, then I wouldn't be adding Python and Django to your workload right now
@tykus So laravel with react native should be just fine. Thanks for the help man !
