Recommended language/framework for a first time android project?
Recommended language/framework for a first time android project?
I've been thinking about writing my own workout logger that better fits my use and I'd like to hear some recommendations on what language or framework to use.
I don't have any prior experience with mobile development nor with Java or Kotlin, and C++ I suspect would be needlessly low level for the features I'd like to include.
Features is like to include in the app is capability of recording video, playing video/audio, creating graphs and opening up in-app tabs. Fancy ui and animations is not of much importance.
Any recommendations on what languages to use and what libraries might be of interest to get going?
You could use Flutter. It's pretty easy to make an app with it. I should ask though, would it not be easier to fork a current project than write a new one completely?
It's mainly something I will do for fun, and going through someone else's codebase and start tinkering isn't something I consider much fun. I like writing stuff from scratch, and it's a decent learning opportunity for if I ever decide I want to write something else for android.
Flutter looks interesting though
