      Thanks, haha. I’d love develop a Native App for it too but this is a zero-budget Project (aside from the Domain). PlayStore has a one-time fee so that’s 25€ for Android + 8€/Month for the IOS AppStore just to have the App on there.

      In theory, I could just have a downloadable .apk for Android to circumvent the fee but most people don’t want to install a random .apk from the internet. And I’m not developing a Native App for like 3 people excluding myself (I’m an iPhone user).

      Soo, yeah that’ll probably not happen :(.

      I personally love PWAs — why the hate for them? Personally I think more apps should be PWAs instead.

          Fair opinion. Native Apps do have some huge advantages, but also some disadvantages.

          I’ve coded both before (although way more PWAs) and with Native you also run into Platform issues as long as you don’t ship exclusively for one Platform.

          PWAs have a huge advantage here since they run the same everywhere as long as the Platform has a browser which is not safari.
