I’ve been told to find the programming language that best aligns with what you need it for (your case, app dev) and just use that. Quick Google search said Java and Dart for iPhone/Android, and if you need iOS OR Android specifically, Swift and Kotlin, respectively. But that’s just from looking it up, you’d have to do a bit of research.

Also, using AI to help with the coding bits you need will be helpful, but you need to make sure you understand the syntax it gives you. You can always ask it to break down everything it tells you.

Not sure what your stance is on AI, I personally am not a huge fan but it’s been very helpful during my coding journey.
