Just looking to get a list of technologies used, e.g. React Native, Flutter, Native, gRPC, GraphQL, REST and how you get them to communicate with Phoenix

I’ve used flutter for a realtime messaging app. Really easy to integrate with Phoenix using a JSON API and token based authentication. Sending push notifications was really simple just using plain HTTP requests to Firebase on the Phoenix side.

There is also a great and easy to use Dart library called phoenix_wings that I used to communicate with Phoenix channels.

I can’t say enough good about flutter. I’ve dabbled in some other mobile development but couldn’t really latch on to anything. After just a few days of tinkering in flutter I was hooked.

Any particular reason you opted to use HTTP requests rather than Channels for the messaging app?

I used HTTP requests for basic things like authentication and listing basic resources. Used channels to notify of events or for the more realtime features of the app.
