i just built my first app !
i have no exprience on mobile development, and i was working on a chat project so i decided to build a frontend for it, but it wasnt perfect idea.
but i told myself, why we dont build an app ? yeah but how ?
you knew ReactJs right ?
then what ?
you can do the same thing you do on the frontend to build an app and that by using React Native !,
the chat project will be real now "who even use websites to chat with others ?", i just need to spend a week to learn it,
but myself told me again that you already have a React project inside your portfolio which is 7asib.vercel.app ?
what about turn it into a real app that users can use it offline instead of fake pwa? so i did it !
i just spend one day installing dependencies and environment "i hate my internet speed" and because i have no laptop, i just working on termux btw.
while that i searched about how to create a project, how to start, how to edite files, thanks to the greate duo "youtube & chatgpt" "i use also claude but for repetive tasks and those tasks that take a lot of time",
was it easy ? of course nope, a lot or errors, libs, different env (web isnt native apps environment),
so that why i took days to finally build the first apk file !, of course i wont publish it on google play because i dont have money to pay 25$,
and i wont support ios system because it has a lot of problem with security "i need either pay 99 or idk dollar, or find another way" so i just put it on my github account on releases
and you can download the app directly from here.
this step isnt just a "i built an app" it means that i can build app anytime i want, so i can work more dynamicly and effectivly !
again, thanks for reading, thank you for give me your time ♡
