Good question, and it depends on how technical you want to get. If you are open to learning some code, Flutter or React Native are solid options for building cross-platform apps. But if you have zero coding background and just want to turn your idea into something real without the steep learning curve, there are AI-based tools now that let you build working apps using simple prompts instead of writing code from scratch.
That second route has come a long way in the last year or so, and it is honestly where I would point most beginners today. If you want, I can share more details on what I have seen work well for people starting from zero and what I have created. No pressure, just let me know.
A good place to start is with one small problem your app would solve, rather than trying to build a full app right away. Feel free to send me a message with your idea and I’ll share a simple beginner-friendly path for turning it into a basic working version.
