App coding?

Question

What is the best language to code for an app? is it multiple? I am currently learning c++. I thought this is a good foundation to start at. What languages are best for what? Ex. what is ruby beat for and java? and what is c++ best for?

Answer 1

It depends on the Operating System of the device. Each programming language has its own use and benefits. If you are looking to develop for the 2 major mobile operating systems, then Java or Kotlin (for Android) and Swift or Objective-C (for iOS) are the best option to go native. You can use C++ with Xamarin or Visual Studio, C#, Ruby, React Native with Typescript, and some others for cross-platform app development.

This is actually a popular/duplicate question, so I'll leave you older threads where you'll find other useful answers:
