Going Mobile - Easier from a PHP or Node Front End?

Mobile Apps
#1

So I have my mega PHP based app.

I want to take it mobile.

Will it be any easier if I first convert my front-end from PHP to Node? :thinking:

#2

Are you talking about native mobile apps for the web store? If so, then neither. Your front end must be straight HTML. You can’t use PHP or Node in mobile apps.

#3

Your mobile app will be a separate project, and it typically interacts with the server via APIs (i.e. Server Connect), so you do not need to convert the existing PHP-based app. Just focus on the actions that you’ll want the mobile app to be able to take and ensure you have the correct APIs created to enable it.
