Mobile Application

A mobile application runs on a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet. PHP is not natively compiled to mobile targets, but it can power the backend API consumed by a mobile frontend written in Swift, Kotlin, React Native, or Flutter. Projects like NativePHP also explore packaging PHP as a mobile app. Mobile apps may be native and compiled for a specific OS, web views wrapped in a native shell, or PWA progressive web apps.
