By app, if you mean mobile app, try using Kotlin for Android, and Swift for iOS. If you mean general desktop program, try Python; it's easy to work with. For the server side, you can use pretty much any language that can be used to write servers, so use what you want to. Also, here are some examples: Java server: https://code.sololearn.com/c7PTwdOXdsWE/?ref=app Java client: https://code.sololearn.com/c072B0Uj5ovg/?ref=app Python server (more complex for additional features): https://code.sololearn.com/ccsD5q3SMkCS/?ref=app Python client (more complex for additional features): https://code.sololearn.com/cN54wF6h9Fr5/?ref=app
