JS and PHP joint meetup: Build Native Mobile Apps and Discuss your AI Journey
Overview
Learn to build native mobile apps with PHP and JS, boost your dev workflow, plus an AI talk—ideal for Laravel/JS developers seeking practical outcomes.
Details
Join Orlando PHP and OrlandoJS as we connect, live via video, with Shane Rosenthal and Simon Hamp, co-founders of NativePHP, a framework that brings native desktop app development to PHP and Laravel developers. The presentation will start at 6:30pm sharp then follow with Q&A.
NativePHP builds real iOS and Android apps, bundling PHP with your app and lets it run inside a Swift or Kotlin (mobile) or Electron (desktop) shell.
You can also build macOS, Windows, and Linux applications using Laravel AND your existing PHP workflow. Best of all, yes, you can use JavaScript, too!
You'll learn what you can build today, where the project is heading next, and can ask questions directly to the NativePHP creators!
Later that night, we'll hear Rahul Ghosh's three-year journey with AI.
We'll have food and drinks to enjoy with social and networking opportunities.
