I have a website (next js ssr) i want to create mobile application is there any way i can you the same website to build it . I dont want to create whole new native client and server side. Is there anyway to convert it(something like capacitor will work or not. Also if i cant use the same codebase can I utilise the current website server side to acces its server from another client side so I dont have to make a new server side component

I want to publish it as an app on app stores, so i was thinking if i can get native like feel or not. If like i cant actually convert it using capacitor (maybe because its ssr not static) i can create an client side app and utilising the same integrated backend functions

Well to get "native feel" you obv need native stuff

I looked at this capacitor js which like converts website to native like feel ig

#

But dont know if it supports ssr

you can use React Native, you can reuse quite a lot of code there

So what will happen to the server side thing

Like rn i use nextjs + react and the backend is in the same code and i use server side propes and routing etc do i have to build seperate client(react native) and also build seperate backend for it

Can i just send the request to url/api/xyz from another project?

outer willow
#

yes and iirc you don't have to setup CORS for an app to make requests

After like enabling cors or other stuff to allow
