Advices on developping a mobile application alonside a Yii website

Hi everyone, I have a database containing multiple audios and videos and I’m building a website to make it accessible with authentication using Yii 2.0 and through a nice user interface with folders and the files.

I plan to develop a mobile application alongside the website.

  1. Is there any way I could convert my Yii website into a mobile application?
  2. Would you have any coding advice to make the transition from the website to the mobile app easier?

depends on if you need native or not, you could use PWA for non native, or expose an API from your yii application, and use a framework like react native, or flutter to build native app

Thank you for the reply. I have done a couple of research and I’m going to develop it using Flutter. But how and for what should I design my APIs ? Is there any resources I could go through to assist me with that ? Since I’m still building the website, so if I can already start to develop the APIs, I’d be able to save a lot of time…
