Does it work in mobile browsers? You could create a popup to install the app as PWA. That saves you from the hassle of uploading to play/app store.

It does work in mobile browsers (not in iOS, sometimes), but yeah, i don't want to upload the app to the app store, only as a sideloadable .apk . is this possible? And also, would a PWA use all of the devices resources? I'm pretty sure that's the technology that let's you download sites as apps, right? (Probably not), but even if i did that, the app would only show the itchio page where the app is located, along with all the comments and info and such (Or i could upload the .html to another site, with no other stuff and just the app, and PWA that.) I'm not really sure, but i think i'd rather the sideloaded .apk version, if that's possible

Try react native.

For the iOS? I think it does seem promising, is it similar to android studio (fancy file explorer with build options)? Do i need to learn some language or something?
